People v. Superior Court (Romero)
green
2 sentences2022Denying defendant’s motion under People v. Romero (1996) 13 Cal.4th 497 to dismiss one or both of defendant’s prior strikes, the court stated that defendant’s “type of criminality is exactly the type of criminality that endangers people in the community, particularly the conduct in this case with a very young victim and sexual acts passing over the course of actually years, because he reengaged in the conduct subsequent to being released from prison.” Denying defendant’s motion to dismiss the serious priors, the court stated, “Again, this is a case where the public deserves to be protected fro 2021Denying defendant’s request, the trial court stated: “having looked at all of the facts that I’m required to look at in terms of sentencing factors, the objectives of the three strikes law and the defendant, I conclude that at this point that you cannot make a credible case that the defendant would be deemed outside the spirit of the three strikes law and the scheme; and therefore, I’m going to deny the motion to strike the strike and 11 People v.

1 sentence2022Total aggregate time, 13 years state prison.” (Italics added.) B Analysis A criminal defendant is entitled to “ ‘sentencing decisions made in the exercise of the “informed discretion” of the sentencing court,’ and a court that is unaware of its 9 discretionary authority cannot exercise its informed discretion.” (People v.
