P. v. Turner
A jury convicted Richard Darrell Turner of selling cocaine base. The trial court later found true a prior strike allegation and a Penal Code section 12022.1 allegation, but found the prosecution had not met its burden as to a prison prior allegation. (Undesignated statutory references are to the Penal Code.) The trial court sentenced Turner to a total prison term of eight years, consisting of the four-year midterm, doubled because of the strike. Turner appeals, contending (1) the evidence did not support his conviction, (2) the trial court abused its discretion in failing to strike his prior strike conviction under People v. Superior Court (Romero) (1996) 13 Cal.4th 497 (Romero), and (3) the trial court erred by imposing a $50 probation report fee. We reject his arguments and affirm the judgment.
