P. v. Griffin CA4/3
Mandak Kohn Griffin appeals from a lengthy sentence following his conviction for multiple sex crimes against minors, possession of child pornography, and using a minor to assist in distributing or producing child pornography. Griffin contends his conviction for violating Penal Code section 311.4, subdivision (a) 1, must be reversed for lack of evidence he used a minor to distribute pornography. As explained below, we conclude the prosecution charged Griffin with using a minor to produce child pornography, the production theory was argued to the fact finder, and the trial evidence supported that theory. Griffin also appeals from the imposition of various fines and fees, but as explained below, we conclude he forfeited his claim of error because he failed to object below. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment.
