The following excerpt is from People v. Santos, E065824 (Cal. App. 2017):
" ' "A fine line can divide an injury from being significant or substantial from an injury that does not quite meet the description." ' [Citations.] Where to draw that line is for the jury to decide." (People v. Cross, supra, 45 Cal.4th at p. 64.) "If there is sufficient evidence to sustain the . . . finding of great bodily injury, we are bound to accept it, even though the circumstances might reasonably be reconciled with a contrary finding." (People v. Escobar (1992) 3 Cal.4th 740, 750.)
