P. v. Quevedo CA2/1
An information charged Heriberto Quevedo with one count of assault with intent to commit rape. (Pen. Code, § 220, subd. (a)(1).) A jury found Quevedo guilty of the lesser offense of simple assault. (§ 240.) The trial court sentenced Quevedo to three years of probation and ordered him to register as a sex offender under the discretionary registration provisions of section 290.006. On appeal, Quevedo contends the trial court abused its discretion in imposing the registration requirement because the trial court failed to make the necessary findings to support the requirement and to state them on the record. Quevedo also challenges the sufficiency of the evidence supporting the registration requirement.
We hold that the trial court made the necessary findings, those findings were supported by the record, and Quevedo forfeited his challenge to the adequacy of the court’s statement of findings by failing to object on that basis during sentencing. Accordingly, we affirm.
