Opinion


THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. RAYMOND WILLIS CAMERON, Defendant and Appellant. A130188 California Court of Appeal, First District, Fourth Division March 25, 2011

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED

Contra Costa County Super. Ct. No. 05-072044-1.

REARDON, J.

Pursuant to a negotiated disposition, appellant Raymond Willis Cameron pled no contest to voluntary manslaughter (Pen. Code, § 192, subd. (a)) and assault with a firearm (id., § 245, subd. (a)(2)), and admitted two personal use of a firearm enhancement allegations (id., § 12022.5, subd. (a)(1)). The plea was entered in exchange for a prison sentence of 23 years and four months, and dismissal of the remaining charges. Appellant was sentenced in accordance with his plea.

The facts set forth in the probation report establish that appellant exited a vehicle driven by another person and shot 19-year-old Frederick Tucker numerous times. Shots also entered a residence, shattering a window. Tucker died shortly thereafter at a hospital from the gunshot wounds sustained.

Counsel for appellant has filed an opening brief raising no issues and asking this court for an independent review of the record pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436. We have conducted the requested review and conclude that there are no arguable issues.

Appellant was advised by counsel of the opportunity to file a supplemental brief and has not done so.

Appellant was represented throughout the proceedings by counsel. His pleas and admissions were validly entered. There was no sentencing error and appellant received the bargained-for sentence.

Judgment affirmed.

We concur: Ruvolo, P.J., Sepulveda, J.
