P. v. Mejia
jury convicted defendant Cruz Mejia of five counts of child molestation (Pen. Code, 288, subd. (a)),[1]and found true the allegation under section 667.61, subdivision (b), that he committed the crimes against multiple victims. He was sentenced to concurrent terms of 15 years to life on each count. He appeals from the judgment of conviction, contending that the trial court erred in: (1) limiting cross-examination of J.T., the alleged victim of counts 1 and 2; (2) not conducting an in camera review of the records from J.T.s stay at Las Encinas Hospital; (3) not excluding newly discovered evidence that J.T. had made a prior complaint of molestation by defendant; and (4) permitting expert witness testimony on Child Abuse Accommodation Syndrome. Court affirm.
