P. v. Guillory
Appellant was convicted of first degree murder, robbery, kidnapping for purposes of robbery, kidnapping for purposes of carjacking, simple kidnapping, carjacking, and child endangerment based upon having her baby present during the commission of the other crimes. (Pen. Code, 187, 207, subd. (a), 209, subd. (b), 209.5, subd. (a), 211, 212.5, subd. (a), 215, 273a, subd. (a).) She contends: (1) her Miranda rights were violated; (2) her prison sentence of 25 years to life constitutes cruel and unusual punishment; (3) the conviction for simple kidnapping must be reversed; and (4) her conviction for child endangerment must be reversed, for lack of a proper showing of the corpus delicti of that crime. Court agree that the conviction for simple kidnapping must be reversed, but affirm the remainder of the judgment of conviction.
