P. v. Wright CA4/1
A jury convicted John Davis Wright, Jr. of inflicting injury to Jane Doe (Pen. Code, § 273.5, subd. (a); count 2), and found true an allegation that he personally inflicted great bodily injury on Doe (§ 12022.7). The jury acquitted Wright of charges of premeditated attempted murder (§§ 664/187, subd. (a)) and false imprisonment (§ 236). Wright later entered a guilty plea to making criminal threats (§ 422; count 4) after the jury was unable to return a verdict on that count.
In a separate bench trial, the court found true allegations that Wright had two strike prior convictions (§§ 667, subds. (c), (e)(1); 1170.12, subd. (c)(1)), two prior convictions within the meaning of section 667, subdivision (a), and three prior prison terms (§ 667.5, subd. (b)). It sentenced Wright to 25 years to life on count 2, struck the additional punishment for the great bodily injury allegation, and imposed a four-year midterm on count 4, which it stayed under section 654.
