P. v. Robertson CA2/7
Following a combined suitability hearing under the Three Strikes Reform Act of 2012, enacted by the voters as Proposition 36 (Pen. Code, § 1170.126), and the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act, passed by the voters as Proposition 47 (§ 1170.18), the trial court found resentencing Michael Curtis Robertson would pose an unreasonable risk of danger to public safety and denied his petitions for recall of his prison sentence. On appeal Robertson contends the trial court’s finding was not supported by substantial evidence. Robertson also argues the People were required to prove his dangerousness to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt and his right to equal protection of the law was violated by Proposition 47. We affirm the trial court’s orders denying Robertson’s Proposition 36 and Proposition 47 petitions.
