P. v. Molina CA2/3
Defendant and appellant Ralph Molina appeals from the judgment entered following a jury trial that resulted in his convictions for two counts of making criminal threats, two counts of false imprisonment by violence, felony infliction of corporal injury on a cohabitant, and misdemeanor resisting, delaying or obstructing a peace officer. The charges arose from three separate incidents involving Molina and his girlfriend, Maria Torres. During the first incident, Molina allegedly choked Torres. The jury was unable to reach a verdict on this count; consequently the trial court declared a mistrial and dismissed it. In the second incident, Molina allegedly threatened Torres with a knife and told her she could not leave their residence. The jury convicted Molina of making criminal threats and false imprisonment by violence, but found the allegation that he used a knife not true.
