P. v. Aguilera CA3
A jury found defendant Jose Manuel Aguilera guilty of attempted murder and sustained a firearm and a gang enhancement in connection with the offense. It was unable to reach a verdict as to two other counts of attempted murder of two other victims, as to which the trial court declared a mistrial. Pursuant to the gang enhancement, the court sentenced defendant in August 2015 to state prison for a minimum indeterminate life term of 15 years, as enhanced with a minimum indeterminate life term of 25 years for the firearm violation. Defendant appealed in September 2015; the case was fully briefed (including supplementary briefing requested by the court) in February 2018.
On appeal, defendant maintains that there is insufficient evidence.
