The following excerpt is from People v. Garcia, 271 Cal.Rptr.3d 206, 57 Cal.App.5th 100 (Cal. App. 2020):
Appellant willfully participated in a brutal gang assault upon a person who had been "green-lighted" by the gang. He told another gang member to stab the victim. The natural and probable consequences of appellant's acts were dangerous to human life, and the evidence supports a finding that he acted with conscious disregard for human life. (See People v. Guillen (2014) 227 Cal.App.4th 934, 983-992, 174 Cal.Rptr.3d 703 [evidence sufficient to convict jail inmates of implied malice murder because they participated in a brutal assault upon another inmate who was believed to be a despised child molester].)
