P. v. Brian H. CA4/1
Brian H. appeals from an order after bench trial extending his commitment to Coalinga State Hospital (Coalinga) as a mentally disordered sex offender (MDSO) under Welfare and Institutions Code former section 6316.2. On appeal, he contends the order is not supported by substantial evidence. He also argues that in closing argument the prosecutor made false statements about his mental health history. We conclude the evidence supports the court’s findings and that Brian forfeited the prosecutorial misconduct claim. In any event, there was no misconduct and no prejudice.
