P. v. Scott
Codefendants Eric Scott and Johnny Key appeal the judgments and sentences imposed after a jury convicted them of murder and rape, respectively. Defendant Scott contends that his conviction for the murder of Isaac Joseph should be reversed because (1) there was insufficient corroboration of accomplice testimony; and, (2) the trial court committed instructional error in connection with CALCRIM jury instructions 362 and 337. Defendant Key contends that his conviction for the rape of Alondra Goodwin should be reversed because the trial court failed to instruct the jury to acquit on the rape charge if defendant reasonably believed Goodwin consented to sexual intercourse. Having considered each defendants contentions, Court affirm the judgments.
