- Valerie Wildman was convicted by trial of first degree murder, attempted robbery and robbery, after going on a robbery spree after her husband’s 21st birthday party with her husband, mother-in-law and cousin-in-law. Her husband, Ronell Bolden, fatally shot a man during one of the robberies. Wildman was sentenced to 26 years, with an additional 50 years to life. She petitioned to be resentenced under California Penal Code Section 1172.6. The court denied her petition, and she appealed. The Court of Appeal agreed that Wildman was still guilty of murder, despite the change to murder law under 1172.6.
