P. v. Burgos CA1/5
A jury found Normandie Santos Burgos guilty of committing multiple sex offenses against two minors. He contends that his attorney violated his Sixth Amendment rights by conceding his guilt for some of the offenses over his objection. In addition, he asserts that the convictions on several counts cannot stand because they were lesser included offenses of other counts for which he was also convicted. We disagree with his Sixth Amendment argument, but we find merit in his point about the lesser included offenses. We reverse the convictions on the relevant counts but otherwise affirm.
