P. v. Colegrove CA2/6
Daniel Curtis Colegrove appeals a judgment following conviction of lewd acts upon a child (five counts), and oral copulation of a person younger than 18 years old (three counts). (Pen. Code, §§ 288, subd. (c)(1), former 288a, subd. (b)(1), 801.1, subd. (a) [statute of limitations].) We conclude that sufficient evidence supports the judgment and affirm. This appeal concerns sexual offenses that Colegrove committed against his teenage stepdaughter T. The sexual activity occurred over a period of six years, until T. graduated from high school and moved to Sacramento. Following her complaints to law enforcement many years later, T. made a pretext telephone call to Colegrove. During the call, Colegrove made incriminating statements, including describing the sexual acts as a recommended treatment for T.’s alleged sexsomnia. The telephone call was recorded and played at trial.
