P. v. Johnson
Appellant appeals after a jury convicted him of two counts of committing a lewd and lascivious act upon a child under the age of 14 (Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (a)[1]). After the jury returned its verdict, appellant admitted the habitual sex offender allegation as to both counts (§ 667.71). On appeal, appellant contends the trial court erred in admitting the preliminary hearing testimony of two of appellant’s prior sex abuse victims on the ground the prosecution failed to exercise due diligence in securing the witnesses’ presence at trial (Evid. Code, § 1291). We affirm.
