P. v. Dixon
Thomas Dixon entered a negotiated guilty plea to voluntary manslaughter (Pen. Code,[1] § 192, subd. (a)) with personal knife use (§ 12022, subd. (b)(1)) and admitted a serious felony prior conviction (§ 667, subd. (a)(1)), a strike (§ 667, subds. (b)-(i)) and six prior prison terms (§ 667.5, subd. (b)). The court dismissed one of the prison priors and sentenced Dixon to 33 years in prison: 22 years (twice the upper term) for voluntary manslaughter, one year for knife use, five years for the serious felony prior and one year each for the remaining prison priors. Dixon appeals. We affirm.
