The following excerpt is from People v. Williams, A130138 (Cal. App. 2013):
Defendant claims the prosecutor committed misconduct both in his cross-examination of defendant and during closing argument. " 'A prosecutor commits misconduct when his or her conduct either infects the trial with such unfairness as to render the subsequent conviction a denial of due process, or involves deceptive or reprehensible methods employed to persuade the trier of fact.' [Citation.]" (People v. Dement (2011) 53 Cal.4th 1, 49.)
