P. v. Lujan
A jury convicted Eugene Lujan of the first degree murder of Samuel George and conspiracy to murder George. (Pen. Code, 187, subd. (a), 182, subd. (a), 189.) The jury also found true various allegations related to the use of a firearm during the commission of the crime. Lujan was sentenced to a total term of 50 years to life. Lujan contends his conviction must be overturned because the trial court (1) erroneously denied his motion for a new trial based on newly discovered evidence; (2) failed to instruct the jury on accomplice testimony pursuant to section 1111; and (3) refused his request to instruct the jury to disregard the fact that Lujan was in custody. Court disagree and affirm the judgment.
