In re Taplett, C063460, concerned a defendant’s petition for habeas relief from the governor’s reversal of the Board of Parole Hearings’ (Board) decision finding her suitable for parole, after serving over 16 years of her indeterminate sentence of 16 years to life for second degree murder conviction. In denying the petition, the court held that there is some evidence to support the governor’s finding that defendant lacks proper insight into the circumstances of the commitment offense.
