The following excerpt is from People v. Sheppard, B295582 (Cal. App. 2020):
The prosecution cites two older cases: People v. Collins (1978) 21 Cal.3d 208 (Collins) and In re Blessing (1982) 129 Cal.App.3d 1026 (Blessing). Both cases have substantially different facts. The differences are fatal to the prosecution's arguments.
