P. v. Cecil CA2/2
Over 30 years ago, “Kimberly was working . . . in Northern California. . . . One night, Kimberly went out with one of her customers and was ‘date raped.’ During the trial for that crime, in the court hallway, Kimberly’s rapist looked in her direction and mouthed, ‘“I’m going to kill you.”’ She was terrified.” (People v. Cecil (Apr. 12, 2012, B228850) [nonpub. opn.].) Years later, Kimberly received a threatening telephone call and letter from defendant and appellant Gary Allen Cecil, the man who had been convicted of raping Kimberly. (People v. Cecil, supra, B228850, at pp. 3–4.) Following trial, a jury convicted defendant of criminal threats (Pen. Code, § 422) and stalking (Pen. Code, § 646.9, subd. (a)). Defendant appealed, and we affirmed the judgment. (People v. Cecil, supra, B228850, at p. 2.)
