P. v. Luevano CA4/2
Defendant and appellant Ismael Luevano is an identified gang member. In one incident, defendant stabbed the victim because the victim stopped being involved in gang activity. Approximately two weeks later, during an officer pursuit, defendant stuck his body out of a vehicle and fired a shotgun at the officer. Following several requests to represent himself and requests to appoint counsel, defendant eventually pled no contest to assault with a deadly weapon (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1); count 2) and assault with a firearm upon a peace officer or firefighter (§ 245, subd. (d)(1); count 4). Defendant also admitted that in the commission of count 4, he personally and intentionally discharged a firearm, to wit, a shotgun, within the meaning of section 12022.53, subdivision (c). In return, the remaining charges and enhancement allegations were dismissed, and defendant was sentenced to a total term of 26 years in state prison with 1,079 days of credit for time served.
