P. v. Jackson CA1/4
A jury convicted defendant Godfrey Jamal Jackson of the second degree murder of MiAndrew Rachal and related charges and enhancements. The trial court sentenced him to 60 years to life in prison. On appeal, Jackson contends the court erred by (1) failing to grant a mistrial or admonish the jury after the prosecutor allegedly committed misconduct during closing argument, (2) giving erroneous jury instructions on the homicide charges at issue, (3) admitting into evidence a statement obtained in violation of Jackson’s Miranda rights, and (4) declining to continue the sentencing hearing to permit further defense investigation. We affirm.
