P. v. Holeman
A jury convicted defendants Jonathan Craig Holeman and Samuel Charles Wright, Jr., of killing John Painter and his daughter, Barbara Martin, in Painter’s vacation home in Lake Arrowhead. The six counts included two counts of first degree murder (§ 187, subd. (a)), two counts of robbery (§ 211), one count of burglary (§ 459), and one count of automobile theft. (Veh. Code, § 10851, subd. (a).) Counts 1 and 2 also included allegations of special circumstances for multiple murders and for felony murder based on robbery and murder—within the meaning of section 190.2, subdivision (a)(3) and (17)(A) and (G).
The two defendants were tried jointly with separate juries. The court sentenced both defendants to life in prison without possibility of parole.
