The following excerpt is from People v. Williams, D057746 (Cal. App. 2012):
(People v. Nguyen, supra, at p. 531.) Courts have recognized that a defendant's gang membership is among the circumstances to be considered in determining whether a charged offense is a natural and probable consequence of a target offense.
