Description
In an indictment returned by the grand jury of the county of Santa Cruz, defendant was charged with the murder of one Thora Chamberlain. He entered a dual plea of not guilty and not guilty by reason of insanity. Upon the conclusion of the trial on the general issue, the jury returned a verdict finding defendant guilty of murder of the first degree, without recommendation. Trial was then had on the issue of defendant's sanity at the time of the commission of the offense, which issue the jury likewise resolved against him. Judgment imposing the death penalty was thereupon pronounced, and an automatic appeal therefrom is now before this court. (Pen. Code, § 1239(b).)
