View this case - free  

Overview: Due process was violated by a 2005 denial of parole under Pen.

Overview: Governor's decision that found an inmate unsuitable for parole was not supported by some evidence because there was no evidence to support governor's findings that the second-degree murder committed by inmate was cold and calculating or premeditated; thus, the crime was not especially heinous under Cal. Code Regs., tit. 15, § 2402, subd. (c)(1).
