P. v. Gallegos
Melvin Gallegos appeals from a judgment convicting him of premeditated attempted murder and other offenses. He asserts the trial court erred by: (1) denying his motion to exclude statements he made to the authorities without being provided Miranda[1] warnings; (2) adding language to the standard instruction on premeditation and deliberation stating that it was not necessary to prove the defendant "maturely and meaningfully reflected"; and (3) providing standard instructions on the use of evidence of uncharged domestic violence or elder abuse to infer his propensity to commit the charged offenses. We find no error and affirm.
