SCHAUER, J.,* Dissenting.
The majority opinion recites evidence which, entirely independent of any incriminating admission, amply supports the jury’s verdict and the judgment. The opinion suggests no tenable basis for doubting that the defendant is guilty as found by the jury; furthermore, it points to no evidence in the record which would support a finding that the verdict results from, or works, a miscarriage of justice.
The records in People v. Morse (1964) 60 Cal.2d 631 [36 Cal.Rptr. 201, 388 P.2d 33], and People v. Hines (1964) 61 Cal.2d 164 [37 Cal.Rptr. 622, 390 P.2d 398], cited by the majority, are not pertinent to the record here; hence, the decisions in those cases are irrelevant. In the circumstances of this case, section 4%, article VI, of the California Constitution, requires that the judgment be affirmed.
MeComb, J., concurred.
