Description

Defendant Fiu was convicted by jury trial of second degree murder (Pen. Code, 187), and of conspiracy to commit assault with force likely to cause great bodily injury. (182, subd. (a)(1), 245, subd. (a)(1).) A gang enhancement was found true as to each crime. (186.22, subd. (b)(1).) He was also convicted of street terrorism (186.22, subd. (a)) and assault with force likely to cause great bodily injury (245, subd. (a)(1). One prior strike was found true in a bench trial, and the court sentenced defendant to 40 years to life in state prison. (187, 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12.) Defendant argues on appeal that the trial court erred by failing to instruct the jury on the theory of supervening cause, by shifting the burden of proof to defendant on the question of withdrawal by an aider and abettor, and by failing to dismiss the grand jury indictment for insufficient probable cause. Defendant also contends that the trial court erred in admitting and instructing upon the predicate felonies needed to prove a pattern of criminal gang activity required for the gang enhancements, and erred in imposing a consecutive 10-year term for the gang enhancement. Finally, defendant claims he was denied a fair trial as a result of racially discriminatory jury selection. We accept respondents concession as to the consecutive 10-year term on a gang enhancement and order the abstract of judgment to be corrected accordingly. In all other respects, we affirm.
