P. v. Magee CA4/2
Defendant and Velda met while in treatment for alcohol and substance abuse. In early 2012, Velda’s adult daughter, G.N., moved in with them in their house on Greystone Road in San Bernardino. (Magee I, supra, E070429, at p. 2.)
In the summer of 2012, defendant began having frequent seizures. Defendant resumed drinking alcohol again around the same time. Velda told him he was drinking too much and threw away or poured out his alcohol. Velda told a neighbor that she wanted a restraining order against defendant and that her marriage with defendant was failing. She also informed her neighbor that she wanted a divorce because of defendant’s drinking and that she had changed the locks because she was afraid of defendant. (Magee I, supra, E070429, at p. 3.)
G.N. believed that Velda was doing “something” to cause defendant’s seizures. G.N. told defendant she thought his seizures were caused by Velda poisoning him.
