California Court of Appeal

Conviction of involuntary manslaughter, Penal Code section 192(b), and elder abuse, section 368, is affirmed over defendant's meritless claims that: 1) the evidence based on an accomplice's uncorroborated testimony was insufficient to support appellant's conviction for involuntary manslaughter; 2) the trial court prejudicially erred in failing to instruct on principles of accomplice corroboration; and 3) the great bodily injury finding with regard to count 1 must be stricken because a great bodily injury enhancement cannot attach to a conviction for manslaughter.
