P. v. Jones
A jury convicted defendant of two counts of second degree robbery and one count of attempted second degree robbery. The jury found true the allegation that defendant personally used a firearm in the commission of the robberies and attempted robbery. The jury found not true the allegation that defendant used a deadly and dangerous weapon in the commission of the attempted robbery. The trial court sentenced defendant to 21 years, four months in state prison.
On appeal, defendant contends that there was insufficient evidence to support his robbery and attempted robbery convictions, the trial court improperly admitted evidence of two of his prior convictions for impeachment, and the trial court improperly restricted defense counsel's comments about a newspaper account of misidentification in connection with eyewitness identification in closing argument. Court affirms.
