P. v. Zerschling CA4/3
A jury convicted defendant Michael Joseph Zerschling of smuggling a controlled substance into a correctional facility (Pen. Code, § 4573 [count 1]); all statutory references are to the Penal Code unless otherwise stated), and possession of controlled substance paraphernalia (Health & Saf. Code, § 11364, subd. (a) [count 2]). Zerschling contends there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction on count 1 and seeks independent review of the trial court’s Pitchess ruling (Pitchess v. Superior Court (1974) 11 Cal.3d 531). For the reasons stated below, we affirm the judgment.
