P. v. Shawkey
On February 16, 2008, appellant Gary Shawkey and Robert Vendrick boarded a sailboat in Dana Point Harbor bound for Catalina Island. Shawkey arrived, Vendrick did not. In fact, Vendrick was never seen or heard from again. At trial, the prosecution theorized Shawkey murdered Vendrick at sea for financial gain, and the jury agreed. Shawkey contends there is insufficient evidence he killed Vendrick, and the trial court erred in admitting certain hearsay statements into evidence. Finding these contentions unmeritorious, we affirm the judgment.
