P. v. Lewis CA1/5
When Marcellous Lewis was between 15 and 17 years of age, he committed three forcible sex offenses, against two different victims (Crystal Doe and Sabrina Doe), and shot and killed a third victim (Robert Tibbs). Lewis was tried as an adult and convicted by a jury of the forcible sexual penetration (Pen. Code, § 289, subd. (a)(1)) and forcible rape of Crystal (§ 261, subd. (a)(2)), the forcible rape of Sabrina (ibid.), and the second degree murder of Tibbs (§ 187, subd. (a)). In addition, the jury found true an enhancement for personal use of a gun with respect to the murder charge (§ 12022.53, subd. (d)), as well as “One Strike” allegations that Lewis’s sex offenses involved multiple victims and kidnapping (former § 667.61, subds. (d)(2), (e)(5).) In 2011, the trial court sentenced Lewis to an aggregate sentence of 115 years to life.
