P. v. Broadus CA5
Appellant/defendant Terry Lovell Broadus was arrested in Fresno County sitting in a stolen car that had been carjacked in Tulare County; the vehicle contained items that had been taken in a robbery in Fresno. The Fresno robbery was linked to an attempted robbery and another robbery in Fresno that occurred a few days earlier.
Defendant was initially charged with several offenses in the Superior Court of Tulare County based on the carjacking. He waived a preliminary hearing, pleaded no contest to the charges, and was sentenced to state prison. In the meantime, a complaint had been filed in the Superior Court of Fresno County that charged him with two robberies and an attempted robbery, and it was pending at the time of his plea in the Tulare County case.
