P. v. Peete
Defendant lost his life, his jewelry, and his diamond studded gold teeth in the apparently lucrative, yet lawless and dangerous, business of drug dealing. Following a joint trial, a jury convicted defendants of robbery, murder, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, various enhancements, and a special circumstance. Both defendants challenged the trial court’s ruling that they failed to make a prima facie showing of purposeful discrimination when the prosecutor exercised his second peremptory challenge to excuse an African-American potential juror. Defendant contends that the court erroneously denied his request for new counsel without interrogating his lawyer, and defendant Courtney insists the joint trial deprived him of a fair trial. Court accepted the Attorney General’s invitation, at defendants’ urging, to strike the parole revocation fines, but in all other respects, court affirmed.
