P. v. Woods CA3
A jury found defendant Montrell Woods guilty of second degree murder and of being a felon in possession of a firearm. It also found he personally discharged a firearm causing death. On appeal, he argues the trial court erred by failing to bifurcate the possession of a firearm charge from the murder charge, the court erroneously excluded evidence of the victim’s propensity for violence, the prosecutor committed two acts of misconduct, the court committed multiple instances of instructional error, and cumulative error resulted. Defendant also argues that his case must be remanded to the trial court so that he can make an adequate record for a future youth parole hearing. Finding no merit in defendant’s claims, we affirm.
