Is there sufficient evidence to prove conspiracy to commit murder and attempted murder?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Herrera, G048676 (Cal. App. 2014):

Herrera challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to prove conspiracy to commit murder and attempted murder. Viewing the facts in a light most favorable to the verdict (People v. Johnson (1980) 26 Cal.3d 557, 576), we conclude a rational trier of fact could have found beyond a reasonable doubt the essential elements of those crimes.
