People v. Smith
Supreme Court of California
124 P.3d 730 (2005)
Karen A. was driving with her boyfriend Renell T. beside her and their infant son in a rear-facing car seat behind her when Smith (defendant), Karen's former boyfriend who had previously threatened her, approached the car and brandished a gun after Renell confronted him. As Karen drove away, Smith fired a single bullet through the back windshield and Karen's headrest, narrowly missing both Karen and the baby. Smith was convicted of attempted murder of both Karen and the baby, and appealed only the baby's conviction as unsupported by sufficient evidence of intent to kill the child.
Whether firing a single bullet at close range toward two potential victims is sufficient evidence of specific intent to kill to support attempted-murder convictions as to both.
