P. v. Galante CA2/6
Christopher Anthony Galante appeals his conviction, by jury, of one count of committing a lewd act on a child who is under 14 years old (Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (a)) , and two counts of committing a lewd act on a minor who is over 14. (§ 288, subd. (c)(1).) The victim of each lewd act is D.L., a niece of appellant’s wife who lived with appellant, his wife and their children during most of her high school years. The jury further found, on count 1, that appellant had substantial sexual conduct with a child under the age of 14. (§ 1203.066, subd. (a)(8).) With respect to all offenses, the jury found that D.L. was under 18 when the offenses occurred and that the prosecution commenced before her 28th birthday. (§ 801.1, subd. (a).) The trial court sentenced appellant to an aggregate term of nine years and four months in state prison. We affirm.
