The People v. Harrisgreen1 sentence2026(See People v. Harris (2013) 57 Cal.4th 804, 829 [“any features of the case that gave the victim prominence in the wake of the crimes would inevitably have become apparent no matter in which venue defendant was tried”].) Accordingly, the last two factors did not favor a change of venue away from Santa Clara County. | 1 | 1 |
People v. Coffmangreen2 sentences2006(See People v. Panah, supra, 35 Cal.4th 395, 449 ; People v. Coffman and Marlow (2004) 34 Cal.4th 1, 46 [ 17 Cal.Rptr.3d 710 , 96 P.3d 30 ].) Our attention, therefore, focuses on the two remaining factors—the “nature and extent of the media coverage” and the “size of the community.” The trial court described the media coverage of the murders and defendant’s arrest as “saturation, as much as they possibly can give,” but noted that such coverage was not unprecedented in Los Angeles County. 2006(See People v.

Neither defendant nor the victims were known to the public prior to the crimes and defendant’s arrest, so the last two factors—the “community status of the defendant” and the “prominence of the victim” do not support a change of venue. 2006(People v.

People v. Malgren

2 sentences2016Code, § 403, subd. (a).) Evidence of dog trailing was held to be admissible in Malgren, supra, 139 Cal.App.3d 234 only if the proponent made a sufficient showing as to five foundational requirements: (1) whether “the dog’s handler was qualified by training and experience to use the dog”; (2) whether “the dog was adequately trained in tracking humans”; (3) whether “the dog has been found to be reliable in tracking humans”; (4) whether the dog was “placed on the track where circumstances indicated the guilty party to have been”; and (5) that the source of the scent—whether it was left at a locat 2016(Ma lgren, supra, 139 Cal.App.3d at p. 239 .) As explained in a subsequent decision, the last two Malgren factors—whether the dog was placed on the trail where circumstances indicate the guilty party was and whether the trail has become stale or contaminated—“help to ensure the dog has a fresh scent, but they do not . . . corroborate that the person located is the person who was tracked. | 1 | 2016–2016 |

2 sentences1998(McMillian v. Monroe County, supra, 520 U.S. at p. _ [ 117 S.Ct. at p. 1740 ].) The county’s payment of the sheriff’s salary did “not translate into control over him, since the county neither has the authority to change his salary nor the discretion to refuse payment completely.” (Ibid.) While the county commissions did have discretion to deny operational funds “beyond what is ‘reasonably necessary,’ ” (ibid.) “at most, this discretion would allow the commission to exert an attenuated and indirect influence over the sheriff’s operations.” (Ibid.)
