P. v. Chavez CA1/3
Defendant Robert Chavez was convicted of two counts of petty theft under Penal Code section 490.2 for taking merchandise from a Fry’s Electronics store on May 23, 2015, and May 25, 2015. On appeal, he seeks reversal of the conviction based on the May 23 theft. His sole contention is that the court erred in denying his motion under California v. Trombetta (1984) 467 U.S. 479 (Trombetta) because the police failed to preserve an allegedly exculpatory surveillance video of the May 23 incident. We affirm.
