S.C. Upholds Conviction of Gang Member in ‘Single-Bullet’ Killing
By KENNETH OFGANG, Staff Writer/Appellate Courts
A gang member who participated in a shootout that killed an innocent bystander was properly convicted of murder, even though there was no proof as to whether the fatal shot came from the defendant’s gun or that of a rival, the state Supreme Court ruled yesterday.
Overturning a ruling of the Fourth District Court of Appeal, the high court unanimously reinstated Julio Cesar Sanchez’s conviction of murdering Reynaldo Estrada.
San Bernardino Superior Court Judge Michael Smith sentenced Sanchez to 25 years to life in prison, and sentenced Ramon Gonzalez to 29 years to life, after a jury rejected their claims of self-defense and found both of them guilty of Estrada’s murder.
Sanchez was prosecuted on alternative theories of premeditated murder and drive-by murder. In California, a willful killing by means of shooting from a moving vehicle is first degree murder.
Estrada was visiting his son’s home, which was near Gonzalez’s. Witnesses said that a Ford Escort had passed in front of Gonzalez’s home, that gunfire was exchanged, and that a stray bullet hit Estrada in the head.
Sanchez admitted being a member of Fontana’s TDK gang, as well as being the owner of the Ford Escort. After initially denying he or the vehicle were at the shooting scene, he admitted firing two shots, saying two people shot at him first.
Gonzalez admitted membership in the Headhunters, a rival of TDK, and also admitted shooting at the Escort. He and Sanchez were both charged with Estrada’s murder.
