P. v. Adcock
A jury convicted defendant Mark Adcock of first degree murder (Pen. Code, 187, subd. (a), 189; undesignated statutory references that follow are to the Penal Code) and found true special circumstance allegations that the murder was committed within the course of a robbery ( 190.2, subd. (a)(17)(A)) and a burglary ( 190.2, subd. (a)(17)(G)). Defendant was sentenced to state prison for life without the possibility of parole. On appeal, defendant contends the judgment must be reversed because (1) the evidence was insufficient, (2) the prosecutor violated Brady v. Maryland (1963) 373 U.S. 83 [10 L.Ed.2d 215] (hereafter Brady) by failing to gather and furnish to the defense information on the credibility of a prosecution witness, (3) the prosecutor committed misconduct, and (4) the trial court received the verdicts in an improper manner. Court affirm the judgment.
