P. v. Smith CA4/9
Defendant Joseph Jermane Smith appeals after a jury convicted him of committing a lewd act on a child under the age of 14 by means of force, violence, duress, menace, or fear (count 1; Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (b)(1) ) and an aggravated sexual assault on a child under the age of 14 and 10 or more years younger than himself (count 2; § 269). The trial court imposed an indeterminate prison term of 15 years to life for count 2 and stayed the term for count 1 pursuant to section 654.
