Although Carley was only three years old when she was killed, he makes the same
argument regarding Janet Foley’s identification of photographs of Carley when
she was less than a year old and when she turned two. To the contrary, “[t]he
People are entitled to present a ‘ “complete life histor[y] [of the murder victim]

upheld the admission of photographs, including childhood photographs, to
illustrate victim impact testimony. (People v. Suff (2014) 58 Cal.4th 1013, 1076;
People v. Nelson, supra, 51 Cal.4th at pp. 219-220.)

separate verdict as to each victim. He argues that the instruction and attendant
verdict forms deprived him of an individual penalty determination for each murder
count. We conclude that defendant has forfeited his claim by failing to object to
