P. v. Wright
In November 2005 a jury found Defendant was a sexually violent predator within the meaning of Welfare and Institutions Code section 6600 et. seq., the Sexually Violent Predators Act (the SVP act). Accordingly, Defendant was committed to the State Department of Mental Health at Atascadero, California, to be confined there for a two year term. Defendant appeals, contending the evidence does not support the finding he is a sexually violent predator. In particular, he believes one of his prior convictions is not a predicate sexually violent offense under the SVP act. Court affirm the judgment.
