P. v. Rodriguez
Defendant, Luis E. Rodriguez, appeals from his convictions for: three counts of lewd acts upon a child under the age of 14 (Pen. Code,[1] 288, subd. (a)); four counts of forcible lewd act upon a child ( 288, subd. (b)(1)); and failure to register as a sex offender. ( 290, subd. (a)(1)(A).) The jury also found that defendant was previously convicted of a violation of section 288, subdivision (a), a serious felony. ( 667, subds. (a)(1), (b)-(i), 667.61, subd. (c).) Defendant argues the trial court improperly: admitted evidence of prior sexual offenses; denied his self-representation motion; imposed consecutive sentences in counts 1 and 3 through 7; and imposed a cruel and unusual sentence of 309 years. The Attorney General argues six additional court security fees should be imposed. Court affirm with modifications.
