P. v. Deaton CA3
A 2016 search of defendant and the car in which he had been sleeping revealed baggies containing methamphetamine, a methamphetamine pipe, empty pill containers, a torch lighter, more than 150 small zip-top baggies, a small digital scale with white residue on it, 37 cell phones, approximately seven laptop computers, 10 sets of car keys, a small camera, a car stereo, and a fake gun.
A jury found defendant Jeremy Lee Deaton guilty of possession of methamphetamine for sale. (Health & Saf. Code, § 11378.) In a bifurcated proceeding, the trial court found true allegations that he had two prior drug convictions. (§ 11370.2, former subd. (c).) The trial court sentenced defendant to an aggregate term of nine years in prison, consisting of the upper term of three years for possession of methamphetamine for sale, plus a consecutive three-year term for each prior felony drug conviction.
