P. v. Lewis
Defendant Robert Lee Lewis appeals from a judgment of conviction entered after a jury found him guilty on two counts of first degree murder (Pen. Code, 187, subd. (a)) and found true the allegations defendant committed more than one murder (id., 190.2, subd. (a)(3)); the murders were intentional and committed by lying in wait (id., 190.2, subd. (a)(15)); defendant personally used a knife in the commission of the murders (id., 12022, subd. (b)(1)); and defendant personally used and intentionally discharged a handgun in the commission of the murders, causing the death of the victims (id., 12022.53, subds. (b), (c), (d)). The trial court sentenced defendant to consecutive sentences of life without the possibility of parole for the murders and an additional 50 years to life for the firearm use under subdivision (d) of Penal Code section 12022.53. It stayed the enhancements for use of a knife.
