P. v. Haidl, Nachreiner and Spann
Following a mistrial, defendants Gregory Scott Haidl, Kyle Joseph Nachreiner, and Keith James Spann again faced charges alleging assault by means of force likely to cause great bodily injury and eight sexual offenses including one count of rape by intoxication, one count of oral copulation by intoxication, and six counts of sexual penetration with a foreign object by intoxication. This time the jury convicted defendants of multiple counts of sexual penetration with a foreign object by intoxication (Pen. Code, § 289, subd. (e)), and the trial court sentenced defendants to the midterm of six years in prison. On appeal, defendants seek reversal of their convictions, claiming the trial court erroneously excluded evidence, erred in handling jury questions during deliberations and in instructing the jury, and erred in imposing a mandatory, lifetime sex offender registration requirement. Defendants' contentions are without merit, and Court therefore affirm the judgment.
