(a)), criminal threats (count 4--§ 422), and false imprisonment (count 5--§ 236). The jury additionally found true allegations attached to count 3 that defendant had personally inflicted great bodily injury (§§ 12022.7, subd. (e), 1192.7, subd. (c)(8)) and two separate allegations that he had personally used deadly weapons (§§ 12022, subd. (b)(1), 1192.7, subd. (c)).
