Description
1 After a jury trial, appellant Israel Joaquin Alvarez was convicted of first-degree murder based on felony murder and aggravated robbery and was sentenced to concurrent prison terms of life and 6.5 years. In our prior opinion on his appeal, we affirmed those convictions and sentences. State v. Alvarez, 210 Ariz. 24, 1, 24, 107 P.3d 350, 352, 356 (App. 2005). We concluded, inter alia, a statement the victim (S.) had made to Pima County Sheriffs Deputy Othic "was non-testimonial hearsay outside the scope of Crawford [v. Washington, 541 U.S. 36, 124 S.Ct. 1354 (2004)]" and, therefore, "[t]he trial courts admission of S.s statement did not violate Alvarezs confrontation rights" under the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Alvarez, 210 Ariz. 24, 22, 107 P.3d at 356.
