Can a judge reverse a finding that he reasonably should have known that the victims were peace officers?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Carrillo, B255298 (Cal. App. 2016):

Reversal is not warranted merely because defendant is able to point to circumstances that might reasonably be reconciled with a finding that would defeat the judgment. (People v. Rodriguez (1999) 20 Cal.4th 1, 11.) Moreover, defendant has summarized only the evidence from which a jury might infer that defendant and his coparticipants had no actual knowledge of the victims' status. He has failed to summarize any of the ample evidence that would support a finding that he reasonably should have known that the victims were peace officers in the performance of their duties.
