P. v. Sumter
Defendant appeals from a jury conviction for two counts of kidnapping to commit robbery; and one count each of robbery, carjacking, and kidnapping in the course of a carjacking. Defendant contends that the prosecutor committed prejudicial misconduct during closing argument; that the trial court committed reversible error by failing to sua sponte instruct the jury with a unanimity instruction; that his conviction for carjacking should be reversed because it is a lesser included offense to kidnapping in the course of a carjacking; and that the trial court imposed an unauthorized fine. Carjacking conviction is revered and the penalties are modified. The judgment is affirmed in all other respects.
