People v. Reyes

Defendant, then 16, was convicted of first-degree murder for shooting death of one victim, and attempted murder of two victims; jury found that Defendant personally discharged firearm as to all three offenses. Defendant's aggregate term-of-years sentence of 97 consecutive years imprisonment, based on multiple counts and multiple victims, does not violate eighth amendment. Automatic transfer statute does not violate eight amendment or due process. (BURKE and SPENCE, concurring.)
