The following excerpt is from People v. Lopez, H034619 (Cal. App. 2011):
CALCRIM No. 376 does nothing to diminish the prosecution's burden of proof. (See, e.g., People v. Letner (2010) 50 Cal.4th 99, 189 [CALJIC No. 2.15 contains no suggestion that the jury need not find that all of the elements of the crime have been proved beyond a reasonable doubt].)
