Description
The defendant appeals from two judgments of conviction after a trial before a jury of two separate violations of Penal Code, section 288. The offenses were alleged to have been committed on the person of a 12-year-old girl. The direct evidence, as is usual in cases of this sort, was limited to the testimony of the child that the defendant had had two separate acts of intercourse with her, one on Easter Sunday, 1947, and the other on or about December 18 of that year. The defendants denial of the charges was explicit and categorical. He was corroborated as to the first offense charged by the testimony of his wife, who testified without objection that defendant and the complaining witness were never out of her sight on the afternoon of April 6, the time at which the first offense was charged to have been committed in a hole on a hillside during an Easter egg hunt. As to the second he proved an alibi by the records of his place of employment that he was at work every day from December 15 to December 19 inclusive at the hour when the complaining witness testified that the second offense occurred.
