P. v. Van Boxtel CA6
Defendant Niles Van Boxtel (defendant) appeals his conviction of making criminal threats against his then-wife, Janet Van Boxtel (Janet). On appeal, defendant asserts there is insufficient evidence to support a finding that his statement to Janet was a criminal threat under Penal Code section 422, subdivision (a). Specifically, he argues that under the circumstances, the threat was not so unequivocal and unconditional that it conveyed to Janet an immediate prospect of execution. We disagree, and affirm the trial court’s judgment.
