P. v. Bailon
A jury convicted Buenaventura Rafael Bailon of 14 counts of lewd and lascivious acts on a child under the age of 14 by force or fear (Pen. Code,[1] § 288, subd. (b)). The jury also found as to each count that Bailon victimized multiple children (§ 667.1, subd. (c)), and that with the exception of count 11, Bailon had substantial sexual contact with the victims. (§ 1203.066, subd. (a)(8).) Bailon was sentenced to an indeterminate term of 195 years to life in prison.
Bailon filed a timely notice of appeal. Bailon's appeal is very limited. He challenges only the sufficiency of the evidence to show three counts as to a five-year-old boy, D., contending the evidence only shows two counts were proved. We have reviewed the record and conclude there is sufficient evidence to prove the three acts on which the jury convicted regarding D.
