P. v. Wadford CA2/6
Aubrey D. Wadford appeals from the sentence imposed after his guilty plea. (Pen. Code, § 1237, subd. (b); Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.304(b)(4)(B).)
During an argument with the mother of his child, Wadford stabbed and killed her. After several days of trial, Wadford waived his rights and pled guilty to second degree murder (Pen. Code, § 187, subd. (a)). He also admitted the use of a knife in the commission of the offense (Pen. Code, § 12022, subd. (b)(1)). The trial court sentenced him to 15 years on the murder conviction, and a consecutive one year on the use of a deadly or dangerous weapon allegation.
Wadford was ordered to pay a restitution fine of $4,800 pursuant to Penal Code section 1202.4, a like fine of $4,800 pursuant to Penal Code section 1202.45 to be suspended pending successful completion of parole or postrelease community supervision, and restitution to the California Victim Compensation Board in the amount of $5,000.
