In re E.T.
A Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 petition alleged appellant E.T. committed one count of forcible lewd act upon a child in violation of Penal Code section[1]288, subdivision (b)(1). The juvenile court sustained the petition at the adjudication hearing. Appellant timely appealed from the judgment entered after the disposition hearing at which the court declared appellant a ward of the court and ordered appellants physical custody be taken from his parents or guardian and committed to the care and custody of the probation department for the purposes of suitable placement with a maximum confinement term of eight years. Appellant contends the court erred in admitting his statements to police as they had been obtained in violation of his Miranda rights and there was no substantial evidence supporting the true finding. Court affirm.
