People v. Lewis
Annotate this CaseLewis was convicted by a jury of five counts of lewd and lascivious acts on a child (Pen. Code, 288 (a)), and was sentenced to 29 years to life in prison. One count involved conduct with Angelina B. in 2006 or 2007, and the other four involved conduct with Teresa C. i1989. Lewis was ordered to pay over $1.5 million in restitution. The court of appeal affirmed the convictions, rejecting arguments that the convictions as to Teresa must be reversed because they were barred by the statute of limitations, or because his right to due process was violated due to the delayed prosecution, and that the conviction as to Angelina must be reversed because the court erred when it excluded evidence that allegedly concerned her credibility. The amount awarded in restitution to Teresa was reduced to $10,000. The order for restitution to Angelina was reversed, and the case remanded for a new hearing on the amount of restitution to which she is entitled.
