Mario Edgardo Garcia Aquino — the man who the L.A. County D.A. alleges killed 13-year-old Oscar Omar Hernandez — deserves the death penalty, one U.S congressman says … and, he blames California Governor Gavin Newsom for making that impossible.

We spoke with U.S. Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-Calif.) Wednesday about this case … and, he tells us the moratorium on the death penalty instituted by Gov. Newsom in 2019 has had disastrous consequences.

Among them, Kiley says, the people of California voted to keep the death penalty legal … and, the governor stepped in to override the rule, making criminals less afraid of committing major crimes. California Proposition 62 — which would’ve repealed the death penalty — failed back in 2016.

As you know … the D.A.’s Office claims Aquino killed Hernandez while engaged in the “performance of a lewd and lascivious act.” Aquino was charged with murder in this case, and faces other charges from a previous alleged sexual assault.

The last time an inmate was executed in California was 2006.

Congressman Kiley says he doubts Gov. Newsom will end that streak … but, we’ll have to wait and see.

Time clearly doesn’t heal all wounds … ’cause WWE legend Bret Hart still can’t trust Hulk Hogan — telling TMZ Sports his longtime nemesis is a straight-up fibber.

Hart and Hogan’s beef goes back decades … with the former accusing the latter of deliberately trying to step on his shine, as well as the two not seeing eye-to-eye on their approaches to wrestling.

Well, it’s the year 2025 and there’s still plenty of drama … ’cause Hart made it clear he’s not the biggest fan of the Hulkster while revisiting a moment leading up to WrestleMania IX in 1993, which is documented in a new Peacock original, ‘Becoming a Spectacle.’

In an exclusive clip of the show, several big WWE names like The Undertaker and Hart himself detailed seeing Hogan show up to the event with an attention-grabbing shiner on his face … which led many to speculate it was the result of a dispute with the late Randy Savage.

While Hart said he doesn’t remember too much about what actually happened, he told us one thing’s for sure — whatever Hogan says happened is probably B.S.

“Hulk Hogan’s always been such a liar,” Hart said. “Whatever he tells you is probably not true. Macho Man, I’d go by his account of things. Macho Man was a much more reliable guy that spoke the truth.”

Hart noted wrestlers showing up with black eyes wasn’t uncommon by any means … and some dudes loved to stretch the truth when breaking down how they got ’em.
