P. v. Johnson CA2/4
Following a jury trial, defendant Christopher Johnson was convicted of one count of robbery, and the jury found that defendant personally used a knife in the commission of the crime. Evidence at trial included surveillance video showing three suspects committing a robbery at a Travelodge hotel, and a police officer’s lay opinion testimony that one suspect in the video looked similar to defendant. Defendant contends the officer’s testimony should have been excluded.
We affirm. The officer’s lay opinion testimony met the standards for admissibility, and even if it were erroneously admitted, any error was harmless.
