## Opinion text

LIU, J., Concurring.
I join the opinion of the court and also agree with Justice Kennard, for the reasons persuasively stated in parts I and II of her concurring opinion (cone. opn. of Kennard, J., ante, at pp. 1076-1079), that the prosecutor’s use of religious authority was improper in this case.
Appellant’s petition for a rehearing was denied September 19, 2012.
