People v. White
Annotate this CaseDefendant Gales was found guilty of attempted voluntary manslaughter and shooting at an inhabited dwelling, and Defendant White was found guilty of possession of a firearm by a felon and shooting at an inhabited dwelling. On appeal, defendants challenged their convictions. The court rejected Gales's contention that there is insufficient evidence to support his conviction for shooting at an inhabited dwelling, concluding that an aider and abettor of that offense need not know of, or share, the perpetrator's specific intent to shoot at an inhabited dwelling, even when the perpetrator has such an intent. The court concluded that defendants' sentence contained errors and modified the judgments to reflect that each defendant is entitled to custody credits and is subject to court operations assessments and construction fees. The court affirmed in all other respects.
