P. v. Soto
Defendant appeals from a final judgment of conviction after a jury trial. Defendant was convicted of one count of possession of cocaine (Health & Saf. Code, 11350, subd. (a)), with two prior strike convictions (Pen. Code, 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12) and five prior prison term enhancements (Pen. Code, 667.5, subd. (b)). He was sentenced to a term of 25 years to life, with five consecutive one year terms for the prior prison term enhancements. He challenges the judgment on two grounds: (1) his pretrial motion to suppress evidence was improperly denied and (2) the trial court abused its discretion in declining to strike one or both of the prior strike convictions, because it failed to consider all the factors relevant to that decision. Court affirm.
