What is the evidence supporting a jury's finding of premeditation for the murder of an elderly man in a wheelchair?

This evidence plainly supports the jury's inference that appellant had a preconceived design to kill that he executed with calm deliberation despite multiple opportunities to reflect and reverse course. "As we have stated, the relevant question on appeal is not whether we are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt, but whether any rational trier of fact could have been persuaded beyond a reasonable doubt that defendant premeditated the murder." (People v. Perez (1992) 2 Cal.4th 1117, 1127.) The evidence here is undeniably sufficient to sustain the jury's finding of premeditation.
