P. v. Mungia
Jose Munguia (appellant) was convicted by a jury of three counts of rape (Pen. Code, § 269, subd. (a)(1)),[1] three counts of oral copulation (§ 269, subd. (a)(4)) and three counts of sexual penetration (§ 269, subd. (a)(5)), all committed against a child under the age of 14 and more than seven years younger than appellant. Appellant was sentenced to 135 years to life in prison. He appeals, contending the trial court abused its discretion in refusing to allow testimony from the victim’s treating physicians, in allowing the prosecution’s child molestation expert to testify beyond the scope of her expertise, and in making certain evidentiary rulings. He also contend the cumulative effect of the evidentiary rulings was prejudicial. We find each of these contentions to be without merit and affirm the judgment.
