P. v. Moran CA2/6
Rosalba Cruz Moran appeals her conviction of the first degree murder of her newborn, biological son. (Pen. Code, §§ 187, 189.) She was sentenced by the trial court to a term of 25 years to life in state prison. Appellant contends the trial court erred when it admitted the statements she made to law enforcement because she received incomplete and confusing Miranda (Miranda v. Arizona (1966) 384 U.S. 436 (Miranda)) warnings and did not knowingly and intelligently waive her right against self incrimination. Appellant further contends there is no substantial evidence she acted with premeditation and deliberation. Finally, she requests a limited sentencing remand, consistent with People v. Franklin (2016) 63 Cal.4th 261 (Franklin). Respondent concedes the final point. We remand for that purpose and affirm in all other respects.
