California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Silva, B270812 (Cal. App. 2017):

(2014) 60 Cal.4th 603, 616.) The elements of conspiracy may be proven with circumstantial evidence. (People v. Vu (2006) 143 Cal.App.4th 1009, 1024.) "Because there rarely is direct evidence of a defendant's intent, '[s]uch intent must usually be derived from all the circumstances of the attempt, including the defendant's actions.' [Citation.]" (Id. at p. 1025.)
