P. v. Hughes CA1/5
Anthony Hughes appeals from his conviction for second degree murder (Pen. Code, §§ 187, 189). A 2011 “cold hit” indicated a DNA profile obtained from forensic evidence found at the 1998 murder scene matched Hughes’s profile. Hughes argues the 13 year delay in charging him violated his state and federal constitutional rights. Hughes also contends the trial court abused its discretion in excluding third party culpability evidence and by declining to strike prejudicial DNA evidence. We affirm.
