P. v. Elpedes
Defendant Ruben S. Elpedes was convicted by a jury of perpetrating a lewd act on a child (Pen. Code, 288, subd. (a)), and was sentenced to the midterm of six years in prison. Defendant contends on appeal that the judgment must be reversed because the prosecutor committed misconduct in his opening statement, and the court abused its discretion in denying his motion for a mistrial based on the allegedly improper remarks. Court find no misconduct, prejudice, or abuse of discretion, and Court affirm the judgment.
