Description
This appeal is automatic from a judgment imposing the death penalty. (Pen. Code, § 1239, subd. (b).) Defendant had been found guilty of the first degree murder of Hazel Wilson, and sentenced to death. The judgment was affirmed on appeal insofar as it adjudged defendant guilty, but reversed insofar as it imposed the death penalty. (People v. Purvis, 52 Cal. 2d 871, 884-887 [346 P.2d 22]). Upon retrial the jury again fixed the penalty at death.
