Heading: Enmund Findings

Text: Although not directly raised by defendant, we have determined that the requirements of Enmund v. Florida, 458 U.S. 782, 102 S.Ct. 3368, 73 L.Ed.2d 1140 (1982), have been satisfied. In his special verdict, the trial judge expressly made an Enmund finding: From the evidence introduced at trial, the evidence introduced at the sentencing hearing, and the entire file in this case, the court finds that this defendant, William Herrera, Senior, actively participated along with the defendants Mickel Herrera and William Herrera, Junior, and that the evidence supports beyond a reasonable doubt that he intended that his son, Mickel Herrera, kill the victim Vernon Marconnet by shooting him to death. See Enmund, 458 U.S. at 801, 102 S.Ct. at 3378-79 (one convicted of felony murder but who did not actually kill the victim may be sentenced to death if he intended that a killing take place). This finding satisfies Enmund.
