Description
Following the guilt phase of the trial, a jury found defendant Joseph William Hart guilty of one count of first degree murder of Diana Lynn Harper (Pen. Code., §§ 187, 189), *fn1 and found true the special circumstances that the murder was committed while defendant was engaged in the commission of, attempted commission of, or immediate flight after commission of the crimes of rape and sodomy. (§ 190.2, subd. (a)(17)(C), (D).) The jury also found defendant guilty of rape, sodomy, and oral copulation of Amy R. (§§ 261, 286, 288a.) At the penalty phase, the jury fixed the penalty at death. The trial court denied the automatic motion to modify penalty. (§ 190.4, subd. (e).) Thereafter, the court imposed a sentence of death.
