P. v. Robbins CA4/1
By way of a first amended information, the People charged Jeremy Joseph Robbins with one count of murder, together with a prior strike and a prior serious felony allegation. After a jury was unable to reach a verdict on the murder charge, the trial court declared a mistrial.
Prior to the retrial, the trial court granted the People's request to file a second amended information to add a count of assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury, and an accompanying great bodily injury enhancement allegation. A jury found Robbins not guilty of murder, but guilty of the lesser included offense of involuntary manslaughter. With respect to count 2, the jury found Robbins guilty of assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury, and found true the accompanying great bodily injury enhancement allegation. The court sentenced Robbins to 16 years in prison on count 2.
