P. v. Mahjoob CA2/7
Codefendants Mahrad Mahjoob and Jason Tapia were tried together before separate juries. They appeal from judgments entered after their juries convicted them of human trafficking of a minor, in violation of Penal Code section 236.1, subdivision (c)(1). Mahjoob asserts instructional error on the elements of human trafficking and insufficient evidence to support his conviction. Tapia asserts he was convicted of an offense with which he was not charged, the trial court erred in refusing to instruct his jury with the more inclusive instruction for circumstantial evidence, and the prosecutor committed misconduct.
We affirm both judgments.
