P. v. Lorenzana CA1/1
A jury convicted defendant Adrian Lorenzana of forcible rape and oral copulation, and four other offenses, against S.V. The jury also convicted defendant of assault with a deadly weapon against D.S. The jury was unable to return verdicts on the sex and other offenses involving D.S. On appeal, defendant contends a juror committed misconduct, and the court erred in not removing him. He also contends the court sentenced him to consecutive terms for assault and making criminal threats in violation of Penal Code section 654. We reject defendant’s claim of juror misconduct error but find his claim of sentencing error has merit. We therefore affirm the judgment of conviction but remand to the trial court for correction of the sentence.
