P. v. Arguello
Jean C. Arguello appeals from his conviction of first degree robbery, which was found to have been committed for the benefit of a criminal street gang under Penal Code section 186.22 (statutory references are to the Penal Code unless otherwise indicated). All of his arguments on appeal concern the admission of gang evidence. He contends the trial court abused its discretion in denying his motion to bifurcate the trial on the enhancement and his motion for new trial based on the gang evidence. He also argues his attorney was ineffective because he did not object to testimony by the prosecution’s gang expert that appellant’s gang had murdered police officers.
We find no basis for reversal and affirm.
