P. v. Martinez CA2/6
Gabriel Campos-Martinez appeals his conviction by jury of first degree murder (Penal Code, §§ 187, subd. (a), 189). He was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison (§§ 187, subd. (a), 190).
Several pieces of the victim’s dismembered body, including his hands, feet and head, were found in Griffith Park within weeks of his demise. Timely disclosure was made. About two years later, three more pieces of flesh were discovered and linked to the victim by DNA analysis. Disclosure of the evidence and the ensuing report were made 16 months later while the trial was in progress. Appellant requested that the jury be instructed regarding the prosecution’s failure to make timely disclosure. (CALCRIM No. 306.) The trial court refused. We affirm.
