P. v. Soeur CA2/1
Savoeun Soeur appeals from a judgment entered after a jury found him guilty of two counts of first degree murder and one count of premeditated attempted murder, and further found special circumstance, gang and firearm enhancement allegations to be true. The trial court sentenced him to life without the possibility of parole for the murders. We reject Soeur’s contentions of reversible error affecting the jury’s verdicts. We conditionally vacate the judgment and remand the matter for reconsideration because the record does not demonstrate that in sentencing Soeur, a juvenile offender who was 17 years old at the time of the crimes, the trial court gave due consideration to whether his crimes reflected transient immaturity or irreparable corruption.
