P. v. Kuechmann
Defendant Joel Kuechmann appeals from a judgment of conviction and sentence entered after a court trial. After Kuechmann waived trial by jury, the court found him guilty of multiple counts of forcible oral copulation and possession of a firearm by a felon, one count of forcible penetration by a foreign object, one count of robbery, and one count of dissuading a witness. The court also found true a number of enhancement allegations, as well as the allegations that Kuechmann had suffered five prior felony convictions and one prior serious or violent felony conviction, and that he had incurred one prior strike conviction. The court sentenced Kuechmann to a term of 206 years to life.
Court conclude that Kuechmann's first three arguments are without merit. However, the trial court's order that Kuechmann pay restitution in the amount of $800 to the Police Department must be stricken. In all other respects the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
