ANGELS CAMP, CA - Local Navy SEAL Matthew Leathers disappeared off the coast of Hawaii during a training mission in February. His father told News10 one of the sacrifices the parents of Navy SEALs make is they can't always brag about their sons the way they might like.

Saturday night, Tim Leathers held to that duty for the most part, but he wanted to share just some of what those who knew Matthew best, loved most about the 33-year-old husband and father.

When the search for Matthew Leathers ended, his fellow Navy SEALs held a memorial service in Hawaii for the family, but it isn't easy letting go of hope.

"Matt's out there somewhere, sitting on a platform of flotsam, growing a beard, catching fish, looking around, going, well, I wonder when they'll find me," Tim Leathers said.

Leathers has always taken pride in his youngest son's achievements, as an ultra-endurance athlete, and as an elite warrior.

TURLOCK, CA - A fire at an abandoned cheese factory Tuesday night was not only arson, but attempted murder, Turlock police said.

When fire crews arrived at the scene on West Main and Tully streets around 7:19 p.m. Tuesday, they found the building engulfed in flames, Turlock police officer Mayra Lewis said.

Crews battled the fire for nearly two hours before getting it under control. Lewis said the fire started inside of the building and was considered suspicious.

On Wednesday, police arrested Lanette Sullivan, Wanda White and Erica Clardy for felony arson and attempted murder. Police said the three women, the male victim and several other homeless people were living in the factory. Police believe the victim got into an argument with one of the women, which turned into a fight with all three.

Sullivan, 46, said she is innocent during a jailhouse interview.

TURLOCK, Calif. (AP) - Animal welfare advocates are celebrating a decision by California prosecutors to charge two poultry farmers accused of leaving 50,000 hens to starve.  

Andy Cheung and Lien Diep were arraigned on felony animal cruelty charges in Stanislaus County Superior Court on Monday. They face up to three years in prison and $20,000 in fines under California penal codes that make it a crime to deprive animals of food and water in a way that inflicts "needless suffering" or cruelty.  

At the time animal welfare workers found the abandoned hens at A&L Poultry near Turlock a year ago, they said the birds had not been fed for two weeks. 

More than 20,000 were already dead and 25,000 were euthanized. The remaining went to a sanctuary. 

The defendants' attorney did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
