P. v. Miranda CA4/1
A jury convicted Frankie Steve Miranda of first degree murder (Pen. Code, § 187, subd. (a); count 1) and second degree robbery (§ 211, count 3). The jury found true certain firearm enhancements relating to count 1 under section 12022.53, subdivisions (b), (c), and (d). The jury also found true that Miranda personally used a firearm (a handgun) within the meaning of section 12022.53, subdivision (b).
The court sentenced Miranda to prison for 50 years to life, consisting of 25 years to life for count 1 plus a consecutive term of 25 years to life for the section 12022.53, subdivision (d) enhancement. The court also sentenced Miranda to an additional five years for count 3 plus 10 years for the section 12022.53, subdivision (b) enhancement on count 3, but stayed the count 3 related sentence under section 654.
