Tom Taylor was bludgeoned to death with a metal rod in the motor home where he lived with defendants and appellants Jazmin Montanez and Anthony Paz. That motor home—which was set on fire with Taylor’s dead body inside—was regularly used as a place to smoke methamphetamine by Taylor, defendants, and others, including David Romero, Alfredo De La Torre, and Diana Sequen. Defendants argue key incriminating evidence was wrongly admitted at trial, and defendant Paz argues the trial court incorrectly sustained objections to certain cross-examination questions.
