P. v. Fulsom CA3
A jury found defendant Anthony Samuel Fulsom guilty of domestic violence (Pen. Code, § 273.5, subd. (a)) and assault with a deadly weapon (§ 245, subd. (a)(1)). The jury also found true several sentencing enhancement allegations. Defendant subsequently filed a motion for a new trial based on juror misconduct. The trial court denied his motion, entered judgment, and sentenced defendant to an aggregate term of 11 years in state prison.
On appeal, defendant contends trial counsel was ineffective for failing to object to improper remarks made by the prosecutor in closing argument. Defendant further contends the trial court erred in denying his motion for a new trial. We conclude defendant failed to meet his burden on appeal for both claims and affirm the judgment.
