P. v. Thomas CA2/1
Defendant Trayvon R. Thomas was convicted of several sex offenses and of dissuading a victim from reporting a crime. On appeal, defendant argues his Sixth Amendment right to confront witnesses was violated because the trial court permitted the victim to testify while wearing dark glasses. Defendant also challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his conviction for dissuading a victim from testifying.
We conclude that allowing the victim to wear dark glasses was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. We reject defendant’s challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence for his conviction of dissuading a victim from reporting a crime. We thus affirm the judgment of conviction.
