P. v. Jaramillo
Defendant Hector Delio Aguilar Jaramillo was convicted of the murder of Roberto Martinez. Defendant challenges his conviction on appeal. We affirm.
First, defendant argues there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction. We disagree. There was sufficient evidence to support the conviction, based on DNA found at the scene, the testimony of a blood spatter expert, and the similarity between defendant’s shoe size and the size of bloody shoe prints found at the scene.
Second, defendant argues the trial court erred by failing to allow evidence of a third party’s culpability in the murder. We find no abuse of discretion; defendant did not offer any evidence that linked a third party to the perpetration of the murder.
