P. v. Cade CA2/5
In 2018, the Los Angeles County District Attorney charged defendant Tyshonn Cade (defendant) with two felonies: possession of a firearm by a felon (Pen. Code, § 29800(a)(1) ) and carrying a loaded firearm in public (§ 25850(a)). The charges were predicated on evidence that, on July 24, 2017, two police officers saw defendant discard a loaded, semi-automatic pistol after jaywalking. The officers arrested defendant and he admitted that he had been carrying the pistol in his right front pants pocket.
