Ex-49er Dana Stubblefield to remain in prison for now after judge denies bail ruling.

Judge Hector Ramon said he couldn't grant bail or release the former football star because the case remains under the jurisdiction of an appeals court.

The Sixth District Court of Appeal vacated the conviction in December 2024 and overturned his sentence of 15 years to life in prison after finding that racial bias had tainted the Black man's trial.
