STATEMENT OF THE CASE

A complaint filed on October 12, 2018, charged Wandrey with one count of continuous sexual abuse (Pen. Code, § 288.5, subd. (a))1 in a three-year period from April 2012 to April 2015, with a substantial sexual conduct enhancement (§ 1203.066, subd. (a)(8)); one count of committing a lewd act upon a minor (§ 288, subds. (a) & (c)(1)) between April 2015 and April 2017; and one count of contacting a minor with intent to commit a sexual offense (§ 288.3, subd. (a)) between April 2016 and April 2017. Following a preliminary hearing, Wandrey was held to answer on the first two counts; the court found insufficient evidence to support the third count. On July 9, 2019, an information was filed charging Wandrey with 272 counts, the odd numbered counts alleging assault with intent to commit a sexual offense against a victim under 18 years of age (§ 220, subd. (a)(2)), alternating with even numbered counts alleging commission of lewd acts upon a child (§ 288, subds. (a) & (c)(1)).
