P. v. Jones CA5
A jury convicted defendant Eugene Louis Jones of criminal threats (Pen. Code, § 422; count 2), intimidating a witness by force or threat of force (§ 136.1, subd. (c)(1); count 3), misdemeanor assault (§ 240; count 1), and misdemeanor spousal battery (§ 243, subd. (e)(1); count 4). Defendant admitted he had a prior conviction for violating section 245, subdivision (c), that qualified as a serious felony conviction (§ 667, subd. (a)(1)) and as a strike conviction (§§ 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d)). The trial court sentenced defendant to a total prison term of 12 years four months. On appeal, defendant contends insufficient evidence supports his conviction of intimidating a witness by force or threat of force. We affirm.
