State v. Gutierrez

ORDER PER CURIAM: Mario Gutierrez appeals the circuit court’s judgment convicting him of two counts of the class B felony of child molestation in the first degree in violation of § 566.067, RSMo 2000. On appeal, Gutierrez challenges the trial court’s limitation of his cross-examination of a witness concerning prior false allegations of sexual abuse by the child-victim, and the prosecution’s reference in closing argument to the fact that Gutierrez had presented no evidence to corroborate his claim that the child-victim had made such prior allegations. We affirm. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, a memorandum setting forth the reasons for this order has been provided to the parties. Rule 30.25(b).
