Maximum Health, inc. Deadly Products?
1st of Jul, 2011 by User397273
This company is owned and run by two African-American LIARS and crooks by the names of NATASHA THOMPSON and STEPHANIE LOGBICHO.
They hire telemarketers, as independent contractors and give them " bonuses" to make outbound calls( to call consumers who have previously bought supplements from other companies), to pose as those previous supplement companies and pretend to be " doing a follow-up call to see how" they liked the supplement and TO TELL THEM BOLD LIES AND SELL THEM PLACEBO PILLS< which they allege are the same "quality supplements."
The owners of this company and the three horribly dishonest manipulative telemarketrs, by the names of VIOLET LEVI, KRISTINE NASALSKI, and JOSH FARLEY( a.k.a " Showtime", a.k.a. "Delmas Griffin") have no humanity, NO conscience, No morals, No soul. They tell poor, unsuspecting customers ANY and ALL LIES to trick them into buying placebo and also some very HARMFUL pills.
They sell customers medically hazardous pills, and charge them astonomical prices.
Worse yet, once they get the customer's credit card and other financial information( and after they lie that there are " no auto-billing charges", they continue to VERY often charge the customer's credit card account , WITHOUT ever informing the customer.
In January 2011, an honest woman began working for the company, initially unaware of the disgusting damaging practices of the company and its workers.
When the poor woman discovered the damaging exploits of this company's owners and workers, she became very scared.
After she was continually abused by the owners and workers, she quit the company.
However, the owners told her that they would NOT pay her wages for her hard work. She told the owner that she would file a suit.
So the owners actually took advantage of this innocent woman's past arrest history and probation status, and went at a police station and filed a FALSE and MALICIOUS police report against the woman, to unjustly retaliate, avoid payment for her work, and to cause her extreme and irreparable harm and damages.
During May 2011, at her new job( they were stalking her, so they knew each and everywhere that this woman worked, thereafter) , they phoned the owner, told him lies about her, slandered her, made an agreement for him to hold her there, while they got the police to come arrest her----on the false charges.
This poor woman was accosted by police, strong-armed, arrested, chained, and taken away to jail and prison( while fired from her new job ), and caused unlimited costs and charges and yet more damages( all while the crew of " Maximum Health" smugly stood by, sarcastically waving " Bye-bye" to the police vehicle that took away the sobbing woman.
To this date, this woman is still facing numerous damages, trauma, loss of income and money, charges, and no end to problems.
And yes, the company continues to operate, selling harmful pills to unsuspecting consumers, over the phone.
Several police reports have been filed, by former customers, in stated outside of California, against Natasha Thompson, Josh Farley, and Some are pending against them in this state of California, too.

I am customer of that company and I love there products that lady tried to victimize me as well.
On Wednesday April 13, 2011 I recieved a phone call @ 7:21pm. The person who called me was Mary Smythe @ 323-960-5280, she claimed she was a supervisor for Maximum Health Products. She said that my order for my male enhancement product was not coming in and I should call my bank and dispute the charge so I could get my money back. She also said that she was at liberty of reordering a better new improved product with a $10 discount off the original price. She wanted to sell me $750 worth of the product I told her that was to much and she went back to the original order.


Mary Smythe then called me again on Tuesday April 19, 2011 @ 3:39pm and she was happy to hear that I called my bank and was ready to reorder the product. I told her my bank is canceling my card number and was sending me a new card to be safe. She said she would put my order through with a check by phone, so I told her she would have to wait until I got home from work because I didn't have a check on me. I told her that I spoke with Violet about my supplements and Mary said she talked to Violet and was going to combine the orders for an even bigger savings.


About 10-15 minutes after I got off the phone with Mary Smythe, Violet calls I told her that I spoke to her supervisor about my order and reorder and she didn't know what I was talking about. Later I find out my order was not canceled it was on backorder and on its way to me. Mary Smythe is obviously a fraud and a crook I'm glad I didn't give her my checking account routing number. Thank You Violet!!!


At 8:56pm after talking to Violet, Mary Smythe calls me back...She's ready to take me order...I told her I just got off the phone with Violet and she already took my order, gave me the discount that she was going to give me and all is good. Mary Smythe got very quiet she said that she wanted to put the order in herself because she had access to different vender with better product. I told her that as long as the company makes a sale what is the difference. She said true and hung up.

To Whom It May Concern:

I am giving this statement on August 25, 2011 in regards to Teresa Violet Arasheben.

She came to work at Maximum Health and from the day she started, there were problems at our company. On her first day, she had an outburst while I was on the phone with a client. She slammed her fist down on the desk and said “FUCK”, very loud and then slammed the entrance door of the office, as she stormed out. I almost lost the sale on that one, but mananged to save it. Shortly, thereafter, I heard her telling clients that she was a Medical Specialist and that she had “patients” that she was giving medical advisements to. When she found out that I brought it up to my supervisor, she attacked me out in the hallway, upon my return from the weekend. She then stabbed me with her pen and proceeded to attack me further, until my co-worker Josh Farley stepped in. If he hadn’t have been there, I believe she would have tried to do something to hurt me. She had serious rage in her eyes and I could see she was vehemently angry.

There were other problems that occurred within the weeks that followed There was a very big competitive side to her and every time my sales were higher then hers, she would become angry. One night I heard her say “bitch”, under her breath as she was leaving. Twenty minutes later, I found my car had been vandalized. There was food all over the windshield of my Mercedez Benz and the hood, and the drivers side door had been keyed. I filed a police report the next day.

She did numerous other things while still with the company. She went into the sales and “hold” bins, called up my clients and cancelled my orders. She lied to them saying that we were fraudulent and that I was having an affair with the boss. She also kicked my chair in front of my co-workers and threw objects that were on her desk at me, repeatedly saying, “what are you going to do about it”?.. Also taking pictures of me, repeatedly. She was trying to provoke me into doing something that she could use against me, but I did not let her. She also stole a sale right out from under me, as I was in the middle of it, by calling a client I had just gotten off the phone with and promised to call right back.. She also filed false police reports against me, saying that I threatened her (when everyone knew I was doing everything I could to get away from her and that I didn’t even talk to her).

She also threatened my life and said that she was going to kill me.!!! And, was taking pictures of my license plate. One of my co-workers said she heard her say she knew where I lived.. I have been very concerned about my well being, due to the instability of this person. She has caused me massive amounts of stress, and I have lost work because of it. She even stole money out of my wallet when I went to the bathroom.

Please do something to keep us all safe and out of harms way.

IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION EIGHT


THE PEOPLE,

Plaintiff and Respondent,

v.

TERESA VILET ARASHEBEN,

Defendant and Appellant.


B199554

(Los Angeles County

Super. Ct. No. SA053271)


APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County. Elden S. Fox and Lisa B. Lench, Judges. Affirmed as modified with directions.

William J. Capriola, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant.

Edmund G. Brown, Jr., Attorney General, Dane R. Gillette, Chief Assistant Attorney General, Pamela C. Hamanaka, Senior Assistant Attorney General, Lance E. Winters, Supervising Deputy Attorney General, Peggy Z. Huang, Deputy Attorney General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.


After Teresa Vilet Arasheben violated the terms and conditions of her probation, the trial court revoked probation and imposed a previously suspended sentence of seven years and four months. Arasheben contends on appeal that: (1) the trial court did not secure a knowing, express, or intelligent waiver of her right to accrued custody credits; (2) the trial court incorrectly calculated the custody credits she did receive, denying her two days of conduct credit; and (3) under Cunningham v. California (2007) 549 U.S. 270 (Cunningham), the trial courts imposition of an upper term sentence violated her Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment rights. We affirm the judgment, with directions on remand as to Arashebens custody credits.

FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

Teresa Arasheben was charged with four counts of second degree commercial burglary (Pen. Code, 459; counts 1, 4, 7, and 10);[1]one count of forgery by use of a credit card ( 484f, subd. (b); count 2); two counts of petty theft with a prior ( 666; counts 3 and 12); one count of grand theft of personal property ( 487, subd. (a); count 5); three counts of theft of an access card ( 484e, subd. (d); counts 6, 9 and 11); and one count of attempted grand theft of personal property ( 664/487, subd. (a); count 8). It was further alleged appellant served five prior prison terms within the meaning of section 667.5, subdivision (b), and that she suffered one prior strike conviction within the meaning of the Three Strikes Law ( 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d) & 667, subds. (b)-(i)).

The charges stemmed from two occasions where Arasheben went into spas for facials, was left alone in the treatment room, and stole the credit cards from the wallets of the women working in the salon. Arasheben later used the credit cards to purchase gift certificates.

On January 6, 2005, Arasheben pleaded no contest to four counts of second degree burglary ( 459, counts 1, 4, 7, & 10); one count of forgery by the unlawful use of a credit card ( 484(f), subd. (b); count 2); and one count of petty theft with a prior ( 664/484, subd. (a), 666)). Arasheben also admitted one prior conviction for which she was sentenced to state prison ( 667.5). In exchange, the trial court stated Arasheben would be placed on probation for five years, and that it would impose and suspend execution of a seven year four month prison sentence. Arasheben was to be released to a residential treatment center on condition that she remain at that program for a period of not less than one year for purposes of counseling and addressing certain psychiatric issues in regard to [her] recidivism. The court further advised that it would grant a Romero motion as to a prior serious felony to permit Arasheben to receive probation and regular time credits. The People agreed to dismiss the counts for which the court could not impose any additional time under the law given the constraints of section 654.[2]

The trial court did, in fact, impose and suspend execution of an aggregate term of seven years and four months in the state prison, comprised of: the high term of three years on count 1, based on the prior history in this matter and also the fact the defendant was on parole at the time of the current offense. . . ; one-third of the mid-term of eight months for each of counts 2, 4, 7, 10 and 12; and a one-year enhancement under section 667.5, subdivision (b). Arasheben was placed on five years formal probation, during which time she was to participate in a 12-month residential program that would include psychiatric and psychological counseling. Arasheben was not to leave the program without court or probation department permission.

On February 15, 2005, Arasheben left the residential program without permission, thereby violating her probation. Probation was summarily revoked on February 17, 2005. On April 25, 2005, the trial court held a probation violation hearing. At the hearing, Arasheben pleaded with the court for a chance to continue in the residential treatment program. After hearing from Arasheben and her counsel, the trial court, Arashebens counsel, and Arasheben had the following exchange:

The Court: Im not going to release her today. If she wants to waive her back time credits, I will reset this for July the 7th, which is the date she was supposed to come back here, and then I will agree to release her to [the residential treatment facility], but Im not going to release her before that. []

Ms. Leeds [Arashebens counsel]: Thank you very much, your Honor.

The Court: Okay. Does she want to come back here on July 7th and waive her back time credits in this matter?

Ms. Leeds: Yes. Thank you, your Honor.

The Court: Ms. Arasheben, I want you to listen to me. I get any reports from the county jail that there are problems there, and Im going to advance the matter, bring you back here, and I may change my mind. [] If you comply with your regimen and you behave yourself, on July 7th Im going to release you back to [the treatment center] to complete a 12-month program. [] And you may feel that by doing that Im delaying somewhat your rehabilitation. But I will tell you, youre this close to going off to the Department of Corrections again. Do you understand that? [] I dont want any complaints. I dont want any crying. I dont want any pleading or begging. You agree to come back here on July 7th to go back to [the treatment center]?

The Defendant: Yes, sir.

Arasheben then inquired whether she could ask the court a question, and proceeded to request specific medical orders for herself.

On July 7, 2005, Arasheben returned to court with counsel for further proceedings. After confirming that the treatment center was willing to re-admit Arasheben, the court asked Arashebens counsel: Have you talked to your client . . . and shes amenable to going back to [the treatment center] and following through with the program as previously ordered by the court in lieu of going to state prison for six years? Arashebens counsel answered yes. The court then asked if Arasheben was going to admit the probation violation, and Arasheben answered yes. The court reinstated probation and stated on the record:

Pursuant to 4019 of the Penal Code and 2900.5 of the Penal Code, Ms. Arasheben does waive her previous time credits both actual and good time/work time. She is ordered to serve 158 days in the county jail. She will get credit for 106 actual days plus 52 good time/work time for a total of 158 days. Neither Arasheben nor her counsel made any objection to the courts statement that Arasheben was waiving her previous time credits.

In May 2006, Arashebens probation was again summarily revoked after she was arrested for petty theft. On February 23, 2007, following a probation hearing, the trial court found that Arasheben had violated the terms and conditions of her probation. On May 7, 2007, the trial court executed the previously suspended sentence of seven years and four months. The court awarded 1, 020 days of credit against the sentence. The same day, Arasheben filed a pro per motion to recall the sentence, arguing that the court had not awarded her credit for previous time in custody and [a]t absolutely no time did [she] waive any time credits. Perhaps in July 2005 Judge Fox ordered time in program to start over. But no time credits were waived. On May 25, 2007, the court denied the motion. This appeal followed.

DISCUSSION

I. Arashebens Johnson Waiver was Valid

Arasheben contends that she did not waive her past custody or conduct credits. We reject this argument.

A defendant is entitled to credit against a term of imprisonment for days spent in custody before sentencing, as well as days spent in custody after sentencing as a condition of probation. (Pen. Code, 2900.5; People v. Johnson (2002) 28 Cal.4th 1050, 1053 (Johnson).) However, a defendant may also expressly waive such credits against an ultimate prison sentence (commonly known as a Johnson waiver), and trial courts have the authority to condition probation upon a waiver of credits for time in custody. (Johnson, supra, 28 Cal.4th at p. 1055.) A defendants waiver of custody credits must be knowing and intelligent, which means that the defendant must understand she is giving up custody credits to which she would otherwise be entitled. (Ibid; People v. Arnold (2004) 33 Cal.4th 294, 308 (Arnold); People v. Hilger (2005) 131 Cal.App.4th 1528, 1532.)

The record reflects that at the April 25, 2005 probation violation hearing, Arashebens counsel expressly advised the court that Arasheben agreed to waive her past custody credits as a condition of the courts agreement to reinstate probation. Accordingly, at the next hearing on July 7, 2005, the court entered an order indicating that Arasheben waived her previous credits. However, Arasheben argues that a Johnson waiver must be personal and express, and, because the trial court neither engaged in a specific dialogue with her directly about waiving the past credits, nor secured her direct statement waiving her custody credits, there was no valid waiver.

Arasheben offers no legal authority for her argument that her counsels statements were not an effective waiver and case law provides otherwise. Counsel may waive all but a few fundamental rights for a defendant. [Citation.]. . . . Included in that narrow exception are such fundamental matters as whether to plead guilty, whether to waive the constitutional right to trial by jury, whether to waive the right to counsel, and whether to waive the privilege against self-incrimination. [Citation.] As to these rights, the criminal defendant must be admonished and the court must secure an express waiver; as to other fundamental rights of a less personal nature, courts may assume that counsels waiver reflects the defendants consent in the absence of an express conflict. [Citation.] (People v. Hinton (2006) 37 Cal.4th 839, 873-874.) Arasheben offers no argument to support her apparent assumption that the entitlement to time creditsa statutory rather than constitutional rightis a fundamental matter that cannot be waived through counsel when the defendant is present in the courtroom and understands the proceedings.

Moreover, there is no evidence that Arashebens counsel was acting alone, or against Arashebens wishes. When determining whether a Johnson waiver was knowing and intelligent we look to the totality of [the] circumstances. (People v. Salazar (1994) 29 Cal.App.4th 1550, 1554, fn. 1 (Salazar).) Here, the record as a whole indicates that Arasheben voluntarily, knowingly, and intelligently waived her past custody credits in exchange for the reinstatement of probation. At the April 25, 2005, hearing, Arasheben and her counsel pleaded with the court for compassion and leniency so that the court might reinstate probation rather than imposing Arashebens suspended sentence. Arasheben was present when the trial court indicated that it would reinstate probation if Arasheben was willing to waive past credits. The trial court raised this issue twice, and when the court asked Arashebens counsel directly if Arasheben would waive her past credits, her counsel answered yes. Arasheben said nothing, even though she had freely spoken during the proceedings, and indeed interrupted later to ask the court a question directly. (Salazar, supra, 29 Cal.App.4th at pp. 1554-1556 [court found defendants Johnson waiver knowing and intelligent where, on more than one occasion, neither defendant nor counsel objected to courts description of the scope of the Johnson waiver].)

Over two months passed, and at the next hearing, when the trial court asked counsel if Arasheben was willing to proceed with the plan set forth by the court at the previous hearing, counsel answered yes, and Arasheben said nothing. The trial court stated on the record that Arasheben was waiving her past credits, and neither Arasheben nor her counsel objected to question or correct the courts statement. Throughout the proceedings at issue in this case, Arasheben felt free to speak directly to the court to ask questions and challenge her counsel. That she did not do so in any of the instances in which the court discussed her waiver of credits indicates she understood and agreed with the waiver her counsel had communicated.

Although the better practice is for sentencing courts to expressly admonish defendants who waive custody creditsunder Johnson about the scope and effect of such a waiver, the failure to include such an explicit advisement will not, however, invalidate a Johnson waiver by which the defendant is otherwise found to have knowingly and intelligently relinquished his or her right to custody credits under section 2900.5. (Arnold, supra, 33 Cal.4th at p. 309.) Under the totality of the circumstances we conclude that Arashebens Johnson waiver was voluntary, knowing, and intelligent.[3]

II. Imposition of the High Term Did Not Violate Arashebens

Constitutional Rights

In 2005, the trial court imposed and stayed a sentence of seven years four months, which included a three-year upper term on one count of second degree burglary. The court imposed the upper term based on the prior history in the matter and because Arasheben was on parole at the time of the current offense. Arasheben contends that under Cunningham, the trial court relied on improper factors to impose the upper term and thereby violated her Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment rights to a jury determination by proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

While we agree with the Attorney General that appellate review of this issue is impermissible because Arasheben failed to secure a certificate of probable cause (see People v. Panizzon (1996) 13 Cal.4th 68, 79), we note also that under People v. Towne (2008) 44 Cal.4th 63 (Towne), and People v. Black (2007) 41 Cal.4th 799 (Black II), we must reject Arashebens arguments. In Black II, our Supreme Court held that if a single aggravating factor has been established by the jurys verdict, the defendants admissions, or the fact of a prior conviction, the trial courts imposition of the upper term does not violate a defendants right to a jury trial, even if the trial court considered other aggravating circumstances in deciding to impose the upper term. (Black II, supra, 41 Cal.4th at p. 813.) In Towne, our Supreme Court expressly held that the federal constitutional right to a jury trial and proof beyond a reasonable doubt on aggravating circumstances does not extend to the circumstance that a defendant was on probation or parole at the time of the offense or has served a prior prison term. (Towne, supra, 44 Cal.4th at p. 79.)

Here, the trial courts decision to impose the high term on count 1 was based in part on the aggravating factor that Arasheben was on parole when she committed the offense in question, and in part on her prior criminal history.These facts were supported by the record and are not impermissible judicial fact finding. (Black II, supra, 41 Cal.4th at pp. 818-820; People v. Yim (2007) 152 Cal.App.4th 366, 370-371; People v. Thomas (2001) 91 Cal.App.4th 212, 220-223.) As a result, the trial court did not violate Arashebens constitutional rights by imposing the upper term on count 1.[4]

III. Arasheben is Entitled to One Additional Day of Conduct Credit

Arasheben contends that the trial court erred in calculating the conduct credits she had not waived, and was ultimately awarded. The Attorney General agrees that the trial court erred in its calculations, but the parties modified calculations differ by one day. We conclude that the trial court did err, and Arasheben should have received one additional day of conduct credit.

Under Section 4019, a defendant receives two days of good conduct or work credit (conduct credit) for each four-day block of time served. (In re Marquez (2003) 30 Cal.4th 14, 25.) The trial court should combine all days of actual custody before calculating conduct credits. (People v. Culp (2002) 100 Cal.App.4th 1278, 1284.) Then, [t]he proper method of calculating presentence custody credits is to divide by four the number of actual presentence days in custody, discounting any remainder. That whole-number quotient is then multiplied by two to arrive at the number of good/work credits. Those credits are then added to the number of actual presentence days spent in custody, to arrive at the total number of presentence custody credits. (Id. at p. 1283.)

Here, the trial court found:

Arasheben served the following actual days in jail, for which she is entitled to conduct credit:

o between March 24, 2005 and July 7, 2005 (106 days);

o between December 20, 2005 and January 6, 2006 (17 days, not including December 20, which the court included as a day served in the residential facility); and

o between May 3, 2006 and May 7, 2007 (370 days);[5]

This totaled 493 days of custody credits. However, the trial court calculated Arashebens conduct credits based on each separate block of dates, rather than the aggregate number of days in custody. When calculated together, Arasheben should have received a total of 246 conduct credits. (106+17+370 = 493; divided by 4 = 123.25; discounting the remainder = 123; multiplied by 2 = 246.)

The trial court also found that Arasheben served actual days in the residential treatment facility, for which she is not entitled to conduct credit (See People v. Moore (1991) 226 Cal.App.3d 783.):

o between July 7, 2005 and December 20, 2005 (167 days); and

o between January 7, 2006 and May 3, 2006 (117 days).

However, the Attorney General correctly points out that two of these dates overlap with days Arasheben spent in jail, and the court gave Arasheben custody credits for jail time for July 7, 2005 and May 3, 2006. Thus, combining the dates from July 8 through December 20, 2005 (166 days) and January 7 through May 2, 2006 (116 days), Arasheben was entitled to an additional 282 days of custody credit, for a total of 1, 021 actual plus custody credits (493+246+282).[6]

IV. Correction of Abstract Judgment

As the Attorney General points out, count 2 of the August 18, 2004 information charged Arasheben with a violation of section 484f, subdivision (b) forgery by the unlawful use of a credit card and this is the charge to which Arasheben pled no contest. However, subsequent minute orders and the abstract of judgment erroneously identify count 2 as section 484e, subdivision (d) possession of access card information with the intent to use it fraudulently. The abstract of judgment should be corrected to reflect that count 2 was a charge under section 484f, subdivision (b).

DISPOSITION

The judgment is modified to reflect a total of 1, 021 days of presentence credit. In all other respects the judgment is affirmed. The court shall amend the abstract of judgment to reflect the modified presentence credit, and to conform to defendants plea under count 2, which was a charge under section 484f, subdivision (b), and shall forward copies to the Department of Corrections.

[2] Section 654 prohibits multiple punishment for the same act or omission.

[3] Though Arasheben does not cite to or rely upon People v. Harris (1991) 227 Cal.App.3d 1223 (Harris), we note that it is a similar though distinguishable case. In Harris, a case decided before Salazar and Arnold, the trial court accepted the defendants argument that he did not intelligently or knowingly waive past credits. The trial court there, however, raised the waiver of credits for the first time at sentencing and the defendant was not advised on the record of the consequence of waiver or the number of days involved. (Id. at p. 1227.) As explained above, the waiver of credits was raised here several times before the trial court entered Arashebens waiver on the record. The totality of the circumstances indicates that her waiver was voluntary, knowing, and intelligent, even though it was communicated on the record through counsel alone.

[4] While Arasheben further argues that Black II is wrongly decided and permits an unconstitutional sentence, she concedes that this court is bound by California Supreme Court decisions.

[5] The trial court mistakenly calculated this period as 369 days, rather than 370, apparently omitting the last day.

[6] Arasheben was not entitled to conduct credits based on time served in the residential treatment facility. (People v. Palazuelos (1986) 180 Cal.App.3d 962, 964-965.)

TERESA VIOLET ARASHABEN, A CONVICTED FELON, CON ARTIST AND CRIMINAL HAS BEEN STALKING SEVERAL INNOCE
PERSONAL MALICIOUS ATTACKS AND VICTIMIZING INNOCENT PEOPLE
15th of Jun, 2012 by alex p
TERESA VIOLET ARASHEBEN, WHO IS A CONVICTED FELON, CRIMINAL, FRAUD AND STALKER HAS BEEN ON A SMEAR CAMPAIGN, CREATING VICIOUS LIES WITH MALICIOUS INTENT TO HARM A GROUP OF PEOPLE SHE ONCE WORKED WITH AT A COMPANY CALLED MAXIMUM HEALTH. THESE ARE ALL PEOPLE SHE ONCE WORKED WITH AT THAT COMPANY IT ALL STARTED WITH A CO-WORKER AT THE COMPANY, THAT SHE WAS SEVERELY JEALOUS OF, AS WELL AS VERY COMPETITIVE WITH, IN SALES AND WHENEVER THAT CO-WORKER WOULD DO BETTER THAN SHE DID, (WHICH WAS A LOT), SHE WOULD DO VERY VICIOUS THINGS TO THAT CO-WORKER. SHE STARTED GOING INTO THE BIN AND CALLING THE CO-WORKERS CLIENTS, SO THAT THE CLIENTS WOULD CANCEL THEIR ORDERS. SHE MADE UP VICIOUS LIES SAYING THAT IT WAS A SCAM COMPANY AND THAT THE PERSON THAT SOLD THEM THE PRODUCT WAS FRAUDULENT. SHE ALSO TOLD THOSE CUSTOMERS TO CANCEL THEIR CREDIT CARDS BECAUSE THEIR CARDS HAD BEEN COMPROMISED. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, SHE VANDALIZED THE CO-WORKERS CAR, THROWING FOOD ALL OVER IT AND KEYING THE PANELS UP AND DOWN ONE SIDE OF THE CO-WORKERS MERCEDES BENZ. ONLY JEALOUSY COULD MAKE A PERSON DO THAT. SHE VICIOUSLY ATTACKED THE CO-WORKER CONSTANTLY, (EVEN THOUGH THE CO-WORKER IS BEAUTIFUL), ON HER LOOKS AND AGE. THE FUNNIEST THING IS THAT TERESA IS WITHIN 2 YEARS OF THE SAME AGE AND WE ALL AGREE, SHE, (TERESA) LOOKS A HELL OF A LOT OLDER THEN THE ONE SHE'S BEEN CRITICIZING, (AND TRYING TO COMPETE WITH). THERE'S NO COMPETITION. ALL OF US AGREE, THE CO-WORKER SHE WAS SO VEHEMENTLY JEALOUS OF IS FAR MORE BEAUTIFUL IN EVERY WAY THEN SHE IS. SHE JUST SIMPLY COULDN'T HANDLE THAT. NEXT, AFTER SHE HAD SCREAMING MATCHES WITH SEVERAL OF THE OTHER CO-WORKERS, AND SNATCHED A MONEY BONUS OUT OF ONE OF THE SUPERVISORS HANDS TEARING THE MONEY UP ALL OVER THE FLOOR. AS WELL AS STALKING THE ONE SHE WAS SO JEALOUS OF, TAKING PICTURES OF HER IN THE OFFICE, KICKING HER CHAIR, THREATENING HER, AND TAKING PICTURES OF HER CAR AND LICENSE PLATE, STEALING HER ORDERS RIGHT OFF THAT CO-WORKERS DESK AND CALLING THOSE CLIENTS WHEN THE CO-WORKER WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A SALE, AND EVEN FILING A FALSE POLICE REPORT AGAINST THE CO-WORKER CLAIMING THAT SHE'D BEEN SLAPPED IN THE FACE BY HER, BRINGING THE POLICE TO THE OFFICE HOPING THEY WOULD ARREST THAT CO-WORKER... THE END RESULT OF ALL OF THAT WAS THE OTHER CO-WORKERS IN THE OFFICE KNEW IT WASN'T TRUE BECAUSE THE CO-WORKER HADN'T EVEN BEEN IN THE OFFICE THAT DAY UNTIL VERY LATE! THE CO-WORKER WAS THEN WARNED TO FILE A RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST TERESA, (THESE WERE THE VERY SAME OFFICERS THAT TERESA WAS HOPING WOULD HALL HER AWAY, BUT INSTEAD THEY WERE WARNING HER). THAT LED TO THE COMPANY DECIDING THAT TERESA NEEDED TO BE SUSPENDED. AT THAT POINT, THE COMPANY DID SOME INVESTIGATING ON HER AND FOUJD OUT SOMETHING THAT TERESA WAS TRYING TO HIDE. (YOU SEE TERESA DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE THE COMPANY HER DRIVERS LICENSE, LIKE MOST EMPLOYERS REQUEST, BECAUSE SHE KNEW WHAT THE COMPANY WOULD FIND OUT). WE FOUND OUT SHE WAS A CONVICTED FELON, WITH A CRIMINAL RECORD GOING BACK AS FAR AS THE EARLY 80'S, WITH CHARGES THAT INCLUDED, BURGLARY, FORGERY BY USE OF CREDIT CARD, IDENTITY THEFT, GRAND THEFT. VANDALISM, (HENCE THE CO-WORKERS CAR), AND EVEN A 2 YEAR TERM IN CALIFORNIA STATE PRISON FOR SOLICITATION TO COMMIT MURDER!! NOT TO MENTION SEVERAL YEARS IN A PSYCHIATRIC TREATMENT FACILITY, THAT HAS OBVIOUSLY DONE HER NO GOOD. THE COMPANY MADE A DECISION NOT TO BRING TERESA BACK AND INFORMED HER OF THAT. TERESA BEGGED FOR HER JOB BACK BUT THE COMPANY SAID NO. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, THE COMPANY STARTED GETTING CALLS FROM MANY OF THE CLIENTS THAT TERESA SOLD SAYING THAT THEY NEVER ORDERED THOSE PRODUCTS. WE FOUND OUT LATER THAT TERESA WAS NOT ONLY "ADDING ON" TO THE ORDERS THAT SHE GOT, . (PROBABLY TO COMPETE WITH THE CO-WORKER SHE WAS SO JEALOUS OF), BUT SHE WAS ALSO USING THOSE CREDIT CARDS TO CHARGE MANY ITEMS FOR HERSELF ONLINE AND PAY BILLS. SOME OF THOSE CARDS WERE USED IN OTHER STATES, SO WE BELIEVE SHE WAS ALSO SELLING THOSE NUMBERS. ONCE A CRIMINAL, ALWAYS A CRIMINAL. WE ALSO FOUND OUT SHE WAS CALLING THE CLIENTS FROM HER HOME, STILL PRETENDING TO BE WITH THE COMPANY AND HAVING THEM CANCEL THEIR ORDERS. SHE ALSO THEN TOLD THEM, SHE COULD GET THEM THE SAME PRODUCTS AT A LOWER PRICE IF THEY CANCELLED AND DID WHAT'S CALLED A "CHARGE BACK". THIS WENT ON FOR SOME TIME, UNTIL THE COMPANY FOUND OUT WHERE SHE WAS. IT TURNS OUT SHE WENT TO ANOTHER UNSUSPECTING COMPANY AND THE OWNER THERE, JUST HAPPENED TO BE FRIENDS WITH THE COMPANY SHE'D JUST BEEN FIRED FROM. SO, BEING THAT SHE WAS HOLDING ONTO COMPANY PROPERTY IN THE FORM OF CREDIT CARD NUMBERS, (WHICH SHE WAS TOLD REPEATEDLY SHE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAVE), SHE WAS ARRESTED BY THE POLICE AND ALL CREDIT CARD NUMBERS AND LEADS WERE CONFISCATED FROM HER. SHE ENDED UP DOING 6 MONTHS IN JAIL AND IN THAT INTERIM OF TIME, ALL THE CO-WORKERS AND THE OWNER OF THE COMPANY ALL HAD TO TESTIFY IN A COURT HEARING AGAINST HER. ALL THE CLIENTS OF THE COMPANY, IN WHICH SHE STOLE CREDIT CARD NUMBERS FROM, HAD ALSO FILED MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS AND REPORTS AGAINST HER. BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER SHE GOT OUT OF PRISON, SHE TRIED TO FILE A WORKERS COMP. SUIT AGAINST THE COMPANY SAYING SHE HAD BEEN INJURED ON THE JOB. THERE ARE NO LENGTHS SHE WILL NOT GO TO GET REVENGE.. OF COURSE, THAT GOT THROWN OUT, BECAUSE IT WAS A COMPLETE FARCE. AFTER THAT, SHE WENT ON A SMEAR CAMPAIGN ON THE INTERNET AGAINST EVERYONE AND HAS BEEN HARASSING ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO TRUTH TO ANY OF THESE FASLE REPORTS, SO YOU CAN JUST DISREGARD THEM ALL INCLUDING ANYTHING NEW SHE TRIES TO POST. SHE HAS NO WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION, ONLY LIES!! WE HAVE ALL THE WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION, AS YOU CAN SEE. BUT WE WILL SAY THAT IT'S VERY FUNNY TO US HOW SHE ACCUSES EVERYONE OF BEING A CHILD MOLESTER. SHE IS OBVIOUSLY VERY OBSESSED WITH CHILD MOLESTATION. SHE HAS ALSO FILED REPORTS CLAIMING WHAT A WONDERFUL PERSON SHE IS, YOU WILL SEE EVERYTHING, INCLUDING ALL THE COMMENTS SHE MAKES, USING THE SAME USER NAMES AS MENTIONED ABOVE. SHE WILL ALSO CLAIM SHE'S THE ONE BEING STALKED BY EVERYONE IN THE COMPANY, (WHICH IS VERY FUNNY AND SAD TO US)., BUT AS YOU WILL SEE THE DATES IN WHICH HER POSTS WERE MADE, THEY ALL CAME FAR BEFORE ANYTHING WE EVER POSTED IN OUR DEFENSE. WE'VE JUST HAD ENOUGH OF THIS SICK TWISTED INDIVIDUAL NO ONE HERE WANTS ANYTHING TO DO WITH HER AND WOULD LIKE HER TO GO AWAY, SO WE CAN ALL GET ON WITH OUR LIVES. THIS WILL STOP WHEN SHE STOPS. BELOW, YOU WILL FIND LINKS TO EVERY STORY SHE'S WRITTEN ABOUT EVERYONE, INCLUDING THE CO-WORKERS AND EVEN THE ATTORNEY INVOLVED IN THE CASE. YOU WILL SEE THAT NO MATTER HOW MANY USER NAMES SHE USES, THE STORIES AND SLANDER ARE ALWAYS THE SAME. SHE IS A PSYCHOPATH ON A RANT!! YOU WILL ALSO FIND SOME COURT DOCUMENTS THAT WILL SHOW YOU EXACTLY WHO THIS PERSON REALLY IS.

THESE ARE ALL THE LINKS TO THE VICIOUS LIES SHES BEEN MAKING UP TO GET REVENGE AND HARASS EVERYONE:

IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION EIGHT

THE PEOPLE,

Plaintiff and Respondent,

v.

TERESA VILET ARASHEBEN,

Defendant and Appellant.

B199554

(Los Angeles County

Super. Ct. No. SA053271)

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County. Elden S. Fox and Lisa B. Lench, Judges. Affirmed as modified with directions.

William J. Capriola, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant.

Edmund G. Brown, Jr., Attorney General, Dane R. Gillette, Chief Assistant Attorney General, Pamela C. Hamanaka, Senior Assistant Attorney General, Lance E. Winters, Supervising Deputy Attorney General, Peggy Z. Huang, Deputy Attorney General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.

After Teresa Vilet Arasheben violated the terms and conditions of her probation, the trial court revoked probation and imposed a previously suspended sentence of seven years and four months. Arasheben contends on appeal that: (1) the trial court did not secure a knowing, express, or intelligent waiver of her right to accrued custody credits; (2) the trial court incorrectly calculated the custody credits she did receive, denying her two days of conduct credit; and (3) under Cunningham v. California (2007) 549 U.S. 270 (Cunningham), the trial courts imposition of an upper term sentence violated her Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment rights. We affirm the judgment, with directions on remand as to Arashebens custody credits.

FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

Teresa Arasheben was charged with four counts of second degree commercial burglary (Pen. Code, 459; counts 1, 4, 7, and 10);[1]one count of forgery by use of a credit card ( 484f, subd. (b); count 2); two counts of petty theft with a prior ( 666; counts 3 and 12); one count of grand theft of personal property ( 487, subd. (a); count 5); three counts of theft of an access card ( 484e, subd. (d); counts 6, 9 and 11); and one count of attempted grand theft of personal property ( 664/487, subd. (a); count 8). It was further alleged appellant served five prior prison terms within the meaning of section 667.5, subdivision (b), and that she suffered one prior strike conviction within the meaning of the Three Strikes Law ( 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d) & 667, subds. (b)-(i)).

The charges stemmed from two occasions where Arasheben went into spas for facials, was left alone in the treatment room, and stole the credit cards from the wallets of the women working in the salon. Arasheben later used the credit cards to purchase gift certificates.

On January 6, 2005, Arasheben pleaded no contest to four counts of second degree burglary ( 459, counts 1, 4, 7, & 10); one count of forgery by the unlawful use of a credit card ( 484(f), subd. (b); count 2); and one count of petty theft with a prior ( 664/484, subd. (a), 666)). Arasheben also admitted one prior conviction for which she was sentenced to state prison ( 667.5). In exchange, the trial court stated Arasheben would be placed on probation for five years, and that it would impose and suspend execution of a seven year four month prison sentence. Arasheben was to be released to a residential treatment center on condition that she remain at that program for a period of not less than one year for purposes of counseling and addressing certain psychiatric issues in regard to [her] recidivism. The court further advised that it would grant a Romero motion as to a prior serious felony to permit Arasheben to receive probation and regular time credits. The People agreed to dismiss the counts for which the court could not impose any additional time under the law given the constraints of section 654.[2]

The trial court did, in fact, impose and suspend execution of an aggregate term of seven years and four months in the state prison, comprised of: the high term of three years on count 1, based on the prior history in this matter and also the fact the defendant was on parole at the time of the current offense. . . ; one-third of the mid-term of eight months for each of counts 2, 4, 7, 10 and 12; and a one-year enhancement under section 667.5, subdivision (b). Arasheben was placed on five years formal probation, during which time she was to participate in a 12-month residential program that would include psychiatric and psychological counseling. Arasheben was not to leave the program without court or probation department permission.

On February 15, 2005, Arasheben left the residential program without permission, thereby violating her probation. Probation was summarily revoked on February 17, 2005. On April 25, 2005, the trial court held a probation violation hearing. At the hearing, Arasheben pleaded with the court for a chance to continue in the residential treatment program. After hearing from Arasheben and her counsel, the trial court, Arashebens counsel, and Arasheben had the following exchange:

The Court: Im not going to release her today. If she wants to waive her back time credits, I will reset this for July the 7th, which is the date she was supposed to come back here, and then I will agree to release her to [the residential treatment facility], but Im not going to release her before that. []

Ms. Leeds [Arashebens counsel]: Thank you very much, your Honor.

The Court: Okay. Does she want to come back here on July 7th and waive her back time credits in this matter?

Ms. Leeds: Yes. Thank you, your Honor.

The Court: Ms. Arasheben, I want you to listen to me. I get any reports from the county jail that there are problems there, and Im going to advance the matter, bring you back here, and I may change my mind. [] If you comply with your regimen and you behave yourself, on July 7th Im going to release you back to [the treatment center] to complete a 12-month program. [] And you may feel that by doing that Im delaying somewhat your rehabilitation. But I will tell you, youre this close to going off to the Department of Corrections again. Do you understand that? [] I dont want any complaints. I dont want any crying. I dont want any pleading or begging. You agree to come back here on July 7th to go back to [the treatment center]?

The Defendant: Yes, sir.

Arasheben then inquired whether she could ask the court a question, and proceeded to request specific medical orders for herself.

On July 7, 2005, Arasheben returned to court with counsel for further proceedings. After confirming that the treatment center was willing to re-admit Arasheben, the court asked Arashebens counsel: Have you talked to your client . . . and shes amenable to going back to [the treatment center] and following through with the program as previously ordered by the court in lieu of going to state prison for six years? Arashebens counsel answered yes. The court then asked if Arasheben was going to admit the probation violation, and Arasheben answered yes. The court reinstated probation and stated on the record:

Pursuant to 4019 of the Penal Code and 2900.5 of the Penal Code, Ms. Arasheben does waive her previous time credits both actual and good time/work time. She is ordered to serve 158 days in the county jail. She will get credit for 106 actual days plus 52 good time/work time for a total of 158 days. Neither Arasheben nor her counsel made any objection to the courts statement that Arasheben was waiving her previous time credits.

In May 2006, Arashebens probation was again summarily revoked after she was arrested for petty theft. On February 23, 2007, following a probation hearing, the trial court found that Arasheben had violated the terms and conditions of her probation. On May 7, 2007, the trial court executed the previously suspended sentence of seven years and four months. The court awarded 1, 020 days of credit against the sentence. The same day, Arasheben filed a pro per motion to recall the sentence, arguing that the court had not awarded her credit for previous time in custody and [a]t absolutely no time did [she] waive any time credits. Perhaps in July 2005 Judge Fox ordered time in program to start over. But no time credits were waived. On May 25, 2007, the court denied the motion. This appeal followed.

DISCUSSION

I. Arashebens Johnson Waiver was Valid

Arasheben contends that she did not waive her past custody or conduct credits. We reject this argument.

A defendant is entitled to credit against a term of imprisonment for days spent in custody before sentencing, as well as days spent in custody after sentencing as a condition of probation. (Pen. Code, 2900.5; People v. Johnson (2002) 28 Cal.4th 1050, 1053 (Johnson).) However, a defendant may also expressly waive such credits against an ultimate prison sentence (commonly known as a Johnson waiver), and trial courts have the authority to condition probation upon a waiver of credits for time in custody. (Johnson, supra, 28 Cal.4th at p. 1055.) A defendants waiver of custody credits must be knowing and intelligent, which means that the defendant must understand she is giving up custody credits to which she would otherwise be entitled. (Ibid; People v. Arnold (2004) 33 Cal.4th 294, 308 (Arnold); People v. Hilger (2005) 131 Cal.App.4th 1528, 1532.)

The record reflects that at the April 25, 2005 probation violation hearing, Arashebens counsel expressly advised the court that Arasheben agreed to waive her past custody credits as a condition of the courts agreement to reinstate probation. Accordingly, at the next hearing on July 7, 2005, the court entered an order indicating that Arasheben waived her previous credits. However, Arasheben argues that a Johnson waiver must be personal and express, and, because the trial court neither engaged in a specific dialogue with her directly about waiving the past credits, nor secured her direct statement waiving her custody credits, there was no valid waiver.

Arasheben offers no legal authority for her argument that her counsels statements were not an effective waiver and case law provides otherwise. Counsel may waive all but a few fundamental rights for a defendant. [Citation.]. . . . Included in that narrow exception are such fundamental matters as whether to plead guilty, whether to waive the constitutional right to trial by jury, whether to waive the right to counsel, and whether to waive the privilege against self-incrimination. [Citation.] As to these rights, the criminal defendant must be admonished and the court must secure an express waiver; as to other fundamental rights of a less personal nature, courts may assume that counsels waiver reflects the defendants consent in the absence of an express conflict. [Citation.] (People v. Hinton (2006) 37 Cal.4th 839, 873-874.) Arasheben offers no argument to support her apparent assumption that the entitlement to time creditsa statutory rather than constitutional rightis a fundamental matter that cannot be waived through counsel when the defendant is present in the courtroom and understands the proceedings.

Moreover, there is no evidence that Arashebens counsel was acting alone, or against Arashebens wishes. When determining whether a Johnson waiver was knowing and intelligent we look to the totality of [the] circumstances. (People v. Salazar (1994) 29 Cal.App.4th 1550, 1554, fn. 1 (Salazar).) Here, the record as a whole indicates that Arasheben voluntarily, knowingly, and intelligently waived her past custody credits in exchange for the reinstatement of probation. At the April 25, 2005, hearing, Arasheben and her counsel pleaded with the court for compassion and leniency so that the court might reinstate probation rather than imposing Arashebens suspended sentence. Arasheben was present when the trial court indicated that it would reinstate probation if Arasheben was willing to waive past credits. The trial court raised this issue twice, and when the court asked Arashebens counsel directly if Arasheben would waive her past credits, her counsel answered yes. Arasheben said nothing, even though she had freely spoken during the proceedings, and indeed interrupted later to ask the court a question directly. (Salazar, supra, 29 Cal.App.4th at pp. 1554-1556 [court found defendants Johnson waiver knowing and intelligent where, on more than one occasion, neither defendant nor counsel objected to courts description of the scope of the Johnson waiver].)

Over two months passed, and at the next hearing, when the trial court asked counsel if Arasheben was willing to proceed with the plan set forth by the court at the previous hearing, counsel answered yes, and Arasheben said nothing. The trial court stated on the record that Arasheben was waiving her past credits, and neither Arasheben nor her counsel objected to question or correct the courts statement. Throughout the proceedings at issue in this case, Arasheben felt free to speak directly to the court to ask questions and challenge her counsel. That she did not do so in any of the instances in which the court discussed her waiver of credits indicates she understood and agreed with the waiver her counsel had communicated.

Although the better practice is for sentencing courts to expressly admonish defendants who waive custody creditsunder Johnson about the scope and effect of such a waiver, the failure to include such an explicit advisement will not, however, invalidate a Johnson waiver by which the defendant is otherwise found to have knowingly and intelligently relinquished his or her right to custody credits under section 2900.5. (Arnold, supra, 33 Cal.4th at p. 309.) Under the totality of the circumstances we conclude that Arashebens Johnson waiver was voluntary, knowing, and intelligent.[3]

II. Imposition of the High Term Did Not Violate Arashebens

Constitutional Rights

In 2005, the trial court imposed and stayed a sentence of seven years four months, which included a three-year upper term on one count of second degree burglary. The court imposed the upper term based on the prior history in the matter and because Arasheben was on parole at the time of the current offense. Arasheben contends that under Cunningham, the trial court relied on improper factors to impose the upper term and thereby violated her Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment rights to a jury determination by proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

While we agree with the Attorney General that appellate review of this issue is impermissible because Arasheben failed to secure a certificate of probable cause (see People v. Panizzon (1996) 13 Cal.4th 68, 79), we note also that under People v. Towne (2008) 44 Cal.4th 63 (Towne), and People v. Black (2007) 41 Cal.4th 799 (Black II), we must reject Arashebens arguments. In Black II, our Supreme Court held that if a single aggravating factor has been established by the jurys verdict, the defendants admissions, or the fact of a prior conviction, the trial courts imposition of the upper term does not violate a defendants right to a jury trial, even if the trial court considered other aggravating circumstances in deciding to impose the upper term. (Black II, supra, 41 Cal.4th at p. 813.) In Towne, our Supreme Court expressly held that the federal constitutional right to a jury trial and proof beyond a reasonable doubt on aggravating circumstances does not extend to the circumstance that a defendant was on probation or parole at the time of the offense or has served a prior prison term. (Towne, supra, 44 Cal.4th at p. 79.)

Here, the trial courts decision to impose the high term on count 1 was based in part on the aggravating factor that Arasheben was on parole when she committed the offense in question, and in part on her prior criminal history.These facts were supported by the record and are not impermissible judicial fact finding. (Black II, supra, 41 Cal.4th at pp. 818-820; People v. Yim (2007) 152 Cal.App.4th 366, 370-371; People v. Thomas (2001) 91 Cal.App.4th 212, 220-223.) As a result, the trial court did not violate Arashebens constitutional rights by imposing the upper term on count 1.[4]

III. Arasheben is Entitled to One Additional Day of Conduct Credit

Arasheben contends that the trial court erred in calculating the conduct credits she had not waived, and was ultimately awarded. The Attorney General agrees that the trial court erred in its calculations, but the parties modified calculations differ by one day. We conclude that the trial court did err, and Arasheben should have received one additional day of conduct credit.

Under Section 4019, a defendant receives two days of good conduct or work credit (conduct credit) for each four-day block of time served. (In re Marquez (2003) 30 Cal.4th 14, 25.) The trial court should combine all days of actual custody before calculating conduct credits. (People v. Culp (2002) 100 Cal.App.4th 1278, 1284.) Then, [t]he proper method of calculating presentence custody credits is to divide by four the number of actual presentence days in custody, discounting any remainder. That whole-number quotient is then multiplied by two to arrive at the number of good/work credits. Those credits are then added to the number of actual presentence days spent in custody, to arrive at the total number of presentence custody credits. (Id. at p. 1283.)

Here, the trial court found:

Arasheben served the following actual days in jail, for which she is entitled to conduct credit:

o between March 24, 2005 and July 7, 2005 (106 days);

o between December 20, 2005 and January 6, 2006 (17 days, not including December 20, which the court included as a day served in the residential facility); and

o between May 3, 2006 and May 7, 2007 (370 days);[5]

This totaled 493 days of custody credits. However, the trial court calculated Arashebens conduct credits based on each separate block of dates, rather than the aggregate number of days in custody. When calculated together, Arasheben should have received a total of 246 conduct credits. (106+17+370 = 493; divided by 4 = 123.25; discounting the remainder = 123; multiplied by 2 = 246.)

The trial court also found that Arasheben served actual days in the residential treatment facility, for which she is not entitled to conduct credit (See People v. Moore (1991) 226 Cal.App.3d 783.):

o between July 7, 2005 and December 20, 2005 (167 days); and

o between January 7, 2006 and May 3, 2006 (117 days).

However, the Attorney General correctly points out that two of these dates overlap with days Arasheben spent in jail, and the court gave Arasheben custody credits for jail time for July 7, 2005 and May 3, 2006. Thus, combining the dates from July 8 through December 20, 2005 (166 days) and January 7 through May 2, 2006 (116 days), Arasheben was entitled to an additional 282 days of custody credit, for a total of 1, 021 actual plus custody credits (493+246+282).[6]

IV. Correction of Abstract Judgment

As the Attorney General points out, count 2 of the August 18, 2004 information charged Arasheben with a violation of section 484f, subdivision (b) forgery by the unlawful use of a credit card and this is the charge to which Arasheben pled no contest. However, subsequent minute orders and the abstract of judgment erroneously identify count 2 as section 484e, subdivision (d) possession of access card information with the intent to use it fraudulently. The abstract of judgment should be corrected to reflect that count 2 was a charge under section 484f, subdivision (b).

DISPOSITION

The judgment is modified to reflect a total of 1, 021 days of presentence credit. In all other respects the judgment is affirmed. The court shall amend the abstract of judgment to reflect the modified presentence credit, and to conform to defendants plea under count 2, which was a charge under section 484f, subdivision (b), and shall forward copies to the Department of Corrections.

[1] All further statutory references are to the Penal Code unless otherwise noted.

[2] Section 654 prohibits multiple punishment for the same act or omission.

[3] Though Arasheben does not cite to or rely upon People v. Harris (1991) 227 Cal.App.3d 1223 (Harris), we note that it is a similar though distinguishable case. In Harris, a case decided before Salazar and Arnold, the trial court accepted the defendants argument that he did not intelligently or knowingly waive past credits. The trial court there, however, raised the waiver of credits for the first time at sentencing and the defendant was not advised on the record of the consequence of waiver or the number of days involved. (Id. at p. 1227.) As explained above, the waiver of credits was raised here several times before the trial court entered Arashebens waiver on the record. The totality of the circumstances indicates that her waiver was voluntary, knowing, and intelligent, even though it was communicated on the record through counsel alone.

[4] While Arasheben further argues that Black II is wrongly decided and permits an unconstitutional sentence, she concedes that this court is bound by California Supreme Court decisions.

[5] The trial court mistakenly calculated this period as 369 days, rather than 370, apparently omitting the last day.

[6] Arasheben was not entitled to conduct credits based on time served in the residential treatment facility. (People v. Palazuelos (1986) 180 Cal.App.3d 962, 964-965.)

This is so sad. Is she African American? Can you please post her photo? I can see that she has published private information such as phone numbers and addresses of her African co-worker. What is your company's name? Write it so people know you were her victim. I was a victim too of a convicted felon who also used the internet to libel me. This is why I started to support Obama's proposal to curb internet freedom as internet is becoming place number 1 for criminals!

Natasha Leann Thompson, of Los Angeles, California, a black 27-year old, manipulative female is the coward whom has been posting all these sick lies about Miss Arasheben.
Miss Arasheben does not even have "four children."Natasha Leann Thompson is a common name, but the Natasha Thompson in question here is specifically Natasha Leann Thompson of Los Angeles, California with birth date of: 08-10-1982
California Driver's License number: B8740124
Residential address of: 3701 Overland Avenue---apartment G262 Los Angeles, Ca. 90034
Race: Black
Build: fat
Height: approximately 5'6.

This Natasha Leann Thompson is a verified child molesterer and extremely dangerous manipulator, thief, liar, crook, and criminal. YOU MUST BE AWARE OF THIS HAZARDOUS individual. In year 2010 she worked for and scammed a company called Telezone. After Telezone fired and banned her from the premises(for harassment, threats, vandalism, assault to several employees---although they did not press charges because they desperately just wanted to get rid of her), she started her own shady home business with stolen clients from Telezone.

She hired several felons and then hired a very nice, hard-workimg woman whom she took horrible advantage of and worked very hard and then decided not to pay her. When the woman left, this monster, Natasha Leann Thompson took advantage of the woman's past record by going to the cops and filling out false police reports gainst her and having her arrested on false charges. Natasha Thompson then began stalking the woman and her family.
This is the woman whom she posted the original and very false "report" about, on this site.
Natasha Leann Thompson has no life and no future and so she spends her days and nights filing false "reports" about this woman in order to intimidate her and extort money from her. She has done this to numerous other people, in the past, and has gotten away with it(just as she's gotten away with molesting and doing harm to children).
However, this woman refuses to be intimidated by this sleazey ghetto-rat called Natasha Thompson.

At any rate, in 2011:
The woman obtained a legally binding restraining order against Natasha Thompson in Santa Monica Superior Court. It is a matter of record.Hoever, Natasha Thompson has violated court orders and continues to stalk this poor woman.
Natasha Thompson has also been a "foster parent" to several children whom she has molested, raped, and done terrible emotional and physical damage to. The only reason she got away with it is because she scared the children and threatened then against testifying.
What's even worse is that she used a man's sperm, that she stole---by taking it out of the condom and using a turkey baster to insemminate herself, to become pregnant and then collect welfare.
So your tax dollars are paying for this child molesterer to live high on the hog.
All of her information is listed, including her home address.
Feel free to visit her.
You can also give her a call--or ten--at her cell phone:
(310)425-6397
and
(310)425-6376.
