P. v. Salcido CA4/2
Defendant is serving 185 years to life for robbing three separate fast food restaurants at gunpoint. During two of the robberies, he forced the employees to enter a walk-in refrigerator while he and his accomplice(s) left the premises. Defendant challenges the three convictions for aggravated kidnapping for robbery as unsupported by the evidence. He raises three other minor points in initial briefing, one of which the trial court has already corrected, and two of which the People concede. Because the evidence shows in each incident the robbery was completed before defendant ordered the victims into the refrigerator, we affirm defendant’s convictions for aggravated kidnapping for robbery. In supplemental briefing, defendant additionally seeks remand so the trial court can exercise its discretion under the newly enacted Senate Bill No. 620 (2017-2018 Reg. Sess.) to consider striking one or more of the Penal Code section 12022.53 firearm enhancements. We remand.
