P. v. Moore CA2/6
Steven Moore appeals from the judgment entered after a jury had convicted him of first degree murder. (Pen. Code, §§ 187, 189.) The first degree finding was based on either of two theories: (1) the murder was willful, deliberate and premeditated, or (2) the murder was committed by discharging a firearm from a motor vehicle. The jury found true allegations that the murder had been committed for the benefit of a criminal street gang (§ 186.22, subd. (b)) and that appellant had personally and intentionally discharged a firearm causing death. (§ 12022.53, subd. (d).) The trial court found true one prior serious felony conviction (§ 667, subd. (a)(1)) and one prior serious or violent felony conviction (“strike”) within the meaning of California’s “Three Strikes” law. (§§ 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d).) Appellant was sentenced to prison for 80 years to life.
