Description
A jury found appellant guilty of two counts of child endangerment (Pen. Code, ç 273a, subd. (1)) and one count of second degree burglary (Pen. Code, çç 459-460). The jury found appellant not guilty of murder and a mistrial was declared as to a charge of involuntary manslaughter on which the jury was deadlocked. Appellant was sentenced to state prison for eight years. On appeal, she contends that her burglary conviction must be reversed because of instructional error, legal impossibility and that the statute prohibiting the fraudulent use of a credit card supersedes the general burglary statute. She further contends that the trial court erred by failing to stay punishment for one count of child endangerment because there was no substantial evidence supporting the finding that there were two distinct acts of child endangerment. We affirm.
