Sergio Brown was in a Southern California courthouse Wednesday where he waived extradition following his arrest in connection with the violent death of his mother, Myrtle Brown, last month.

Brown, 35, was denied bail during a morning extradition hearing in a San Diego courthouse, according to a spokesperson with the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office.
