P. v. Thompson
A jury convicted Danny Thompson of two counts of kidnapping for the purpose of robbery (Pen. Code,[1] § 209, subd. (b)) and three counts of second degree robbery (§ 211). The jury found that Thompson personally used a firearm within the meaning of section 12022.53, subdivision (b) in committing each of these crimes.[2] In a bifurcated proceeding, Thompson admitted he had a prior serious felony conviction (§ 667, subd. (a)) and two prior strike convictions (§ 667, subds. (b)-(i)). The trial court sentenced Thompson to an indeterminate term of 75 years to life plus a determinate term of 45 years.
