P. v. Duffett
A jury convicted defendant, Jeff Duffett, of three counts of committing lewd and lascivious acts on a minor (the first victim) and three counts of committing lewd and lascivious acts on another minor (the second victim) (Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (a)).[1] The jury further found true an allegation that defendant victimized more than one minor (§ 667.61, subd. (e)(5)). In bifurcated proceedings, defendant admitted having suffered a strike prior (§ 667, subds. (c) & (e)). He was sentenced to prison for two terms of 30 years to life and appeals claiming evidence was erroneously admitted and his motion to dismiss his strike prior was improperly denied. We reject his contentions and affirm. The facts involving these offenses, except as discussed in connection with the issues, are irrelevant to this appeal.
