P. v. Moran CA1/4
Defendant Gustavo Moran was convicted of first degree murder, with a firearm enhancement. He was 15 years old at the time of the crime. On appeal, he contends that his confession should not have been admitted, that the trial court committed instructional error, that the evidence is insufficient to show he acted with malice, that the prosecutor engaged in misconduct, that his sentence of 50 years to life constituted cruel and unusual punishment, that he is entitled to a transfer hearing on whether the matter should have proceeded in juvenile court, and that the trial court should consider whether to strike the firearm enhancement.
