California Court of Appeal

Defendant's conviction for committing a lewd and lascivious act on a child under the age of 14 is affirmed where the trial court properly admitted evidence of defendant's prior sex crimes against adults because it was highly probative of his intent to touch the victim for sexual gratification, thus dispelling any notion that the touching was the result of accident or mistake.
