Is there a substantial likelihood of misidentification based on the evidence that defendant's fingerprints were found on the driver's side door of the victim's car?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Tillman, E065706 (Cal. App. 2018):

Finally, there is no substantial likelihood of misidentification based on the corroborating evidence that defendant's fingerprints were found on the driver's side door of the victim's car. Defendant did not know the victim and there was no evidence he lived near her. The fingerprints were positioned in the spot consistent with her testimony that he jumped out of the driver's side window. As such, defendant cannot show he was prejudiced. (People v. Carter, supra, 36 Cal.4th at p. 1189.)
