Summary

Where appellant had $3,000 to $4,000 worth of drugs on his person, and more than 800 postage stamps in his living quarters in Atascadero State Hospital, and where the prosecution’s witness opined from this evidence that the drugs were possessed for sale, the evidence was sufficient to support his conviction. The officer was properly permitted to opine on this subject, and the jury was entitled to credit or reject the opinion.
