P. v. Shepler CA4/1
A jury convicted Kevin Richard Shepler of three counts of committing a lewd act on a child (Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (a); counts 1-3) and one count of continuous sexual abuse of a child (§ 288.5, subd. (a); count 8). The court sentenced Shepler to a total term of 28 years in state prison.
Shepler contends: (1) the court erred in denying a mistrial when two jurors inadvertently read redacted portions of an interview transcript; (2) the court erred in allowing the minor victim to testify with a support dog present; and (3) the court erred in excluding a friend of Shepler from the courtroom during the minor victim's testimony. We disagree with each of these contentions and, therefore, affirm the judgment.
