As set forth in our prior opinion People v. Pimentel et al. (Sept. 12, 2003, G030730) [nonpub. opn.] (Pimentel I), Pimentel was found guilty by a jury of attempted deliberate, premeditated murder, street terrorism, and possession of a firearm while on probation. The jury also found Pimentel committed the attempted murder for the benefit of a criminal street gang, and in so doing, vicariously discharged a firearm, causing great bodily injury. The trial court imposed, inter alia, a life term with the possibility of parole for the attempted murder offense, plus a consecutive term of 25 years to life for the firearm sentencing enhancement as to that offense.
