Are there any cases where a defendant was convicted of two counts where there were two separate victims named in two separate counts?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Larson, E063619 (Cal. App. 2016):
Therefore, because the evidence showed that defendant was convicted of two counts where there were two separate victims named in two separate counts, the trial court's imposition of consecutive sentence is not an abuse of discretion. (People v. Caesar, supra, 167 Cal.App.4th at pp. 1060-1061, citing People v. Calhoun, supra, 40 Cal.4th at p. 408.)
The judgment is affirmed.
