Is there any case law where a defendant has been accused of perverting the course of justice?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Adriana G. (In re Adriana G.), G052379 (Cal. App. 2017):

2. The prosecutor asked Pegg: "Had you told [Adriana] she was under arrest at any time?" Pegg responded: "No. I told her just the opposite." "On appeal, we must view the evidence in the light most favorable to the People and must presume in support of the judgment the existence of every fact the trier could reasonably deduce from the evidence." (People v. Jones (1990) 51 Cal.3d 294, 314.)

3. Further undesignated statutory references will be to the Penal Code.
