P. v. Stirnaman
A jury acquitted defendant Robert Gary Stirnaman of grand and petty theft but convicted him of knowing receipt of stolen property. (Pen. Code, 496, subd. (a).) Defendant admitted having served three prior prison terms. (Id., 667.5, subd. (b).) The trial court sentenced defendant to state prison for four years four months, and he timely filed this appeal. On appeal, defendant contends the trial court misinstructed the jury on threats against a witness; the prosecutor committed misconduct in argument; and the trial court improperly denied defendants request for commitment to the California Rehabilitation Center (CRC). Court shall affirm the judgment.
