¶2 California state prisoner Anthony Sneed appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253 1 , and we reverse and remand.
¶3 Sneed contends his commitment offense does not support the Governor’s decision in light of the passage of time and evidence of his rehabilitation. An independent review of the record reveals that the state court unreasonably concluded that some evidence supports the Governor’s decision. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d); Cooke v. Solis, 606 F.3d 1206, 1216 (9th Cir.2010); Himes v. Thompson, 336 F.3d 848, 853 (9th Cir.2003); see also Hayward v. Marshall, 603 F.3d 546, 562 (9th Cir.2010) (en banc) (“The prisoner’s aggravated offense does not establish current dangerousness ‘unless the record also establishes that something in the prisoner’s pre- or post-incarceration history, or his or her current demeanor and mental state’ supports the inference of dangerousness.”) (quoting In re Lawrence, 44 Cal.4th 1181, 82 Cal. Rptr.3d 169, 190 P.3d 535, 555 (2008)). Therefore, we reverse the district court and remand with instructions to grant the writ.
¶4 REVERSED and REMANDED.
