California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Lopez, H035015 (Cal. App. 2012):
another gang member's criminal conduct. "Since there is no requirement in section 186.22 that the crime be committed with the intent to [promote] or further any other crime, defendant's contention fails in its premise." (People v. Hill, supra, 142 Cal.App.4th at p. 774.)
