P. v. Jennings
A jury found defendant David Westley Jennings, Jr., guilty of battery on a cohabitant (Pen. Code, 243, subd. (e)(1)), the lesser included offense of inflicting corporal injury on a cohabitant (Pen. Code, 273.5, subd. (a)) (count 1), and assault (Pen. Code, 245, subd. (a)(1)). The trial court thereafter found true that defendant had sustained one prior strike conviction. As a result, defendant was sentenced to four years in state prison. Defendants sole contention on appeal is that the trial court erred in admitting statements the unavailable victim made to the investigating officer. Court reject this contention and affirm the judgment.
