P. v. Gray CA2/8
In 2017, a jury convicted defendant and appellant Trevail Gray of multiple felonies, including three counts of attempted murder. The jury found true the allegations the attempted murders were willful, deliberate and premeditated and that they were committed for the benefit of a criminal street gang. It also found true that a principal discharged a firearm in the commission of the offenses. Defendant, who admitted a prior qualifying strike, was sentenced to 147 years to life in prison.
Defendant appealed. In an opinion filed October 1, 2018, we struck the gang enhancements and, in light of legislation passed while the appeal was pending (Senate Bill 620 (2017–2018 Reg. Sess.)), we remanded to permit the trial court to consider whether to exercise its newly acquired discretion to strike the Penal Code section 12022.53 firearm enhancements. We otherwise affirmed the judgment.
Defendant petitioned the Supreme Court for review.
