Days before his jury trial which would have started tomorrow, at trial confirmation on 9/26, Jonathan Pulse resolved his case with a guilty plea to Count 2 PC 288 (a) lewd or lascivious acts with a child under the age of14. Count 1 PC 288.7 (b) was dismissed. There is a stipulation to 12 year prison sentence and registration as a sex offender. Pulse was advised of possible court proceedings against him in the future to determine if he is a sexually violent predator. Sentencing is on 10/23.
Deputy District Attorney Carolyn Schaffer is the prosecutor for this case. Deputy Conflict Counsel Zachary Curtis is Pulse's attorney.
Since this is a stipulated prison term and I have covered the plea, I will add sentencing court minutes to this post as I have in other cases unless the DA issues a press release after sentencing or there is some new development.
10/23: Sentencing continued to 10/25.
