P. v. Salazar-Zavala
A jury convicted defendant Jotman Salazar-Zavala of rape upon evidence that defendant had unlawful sexual intercourse with an unconscious woman during a drinking party. (Pen. Code, § 261, subd. (a)(4).) The court sentenced defendant to three years in prison. Defendant contends the trial court erred in denying defense counsel’s request to excuse a prospective juror for cause and thereby forcing defendant, who had exhausted his peremptory challenges, to accept a biased juror. Finding no error, we shall affirm the judgment.
