P. v. Daniels
A jury convicted appellant, Michael Jacquet Daniels, of driving under the influence and causing injury to another (Veh. Code, 23153, subd. (a)), and driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08 percent or more and causing injury to another (Veh. Code, 23153, subd. (b)), and found that he personally inflicted great bodily injury within Penal Code section 12022.7, subdivision (b) on each count.[1] The court found that appellant had suffered three prior strike convictions ( 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12, subds. (a)-(c)) and four prior serious felony convictions ( 667, subd. (a)), and had served four prison terms ( 667.5, subd. (b)). Appellant was sentenced to a term of 45 years to life. On appeal, appellant contends that the trial court (1) violated appellants Miranda rights in admitting statements that appellant made to the police in the hospital, and (2) abused its discretion in denying appellants motion to strike his prior strike convictions. Because we find no error, Court affirm.
