Does a sentence of life with the possibility of parole apply to a convicted child rapist?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from The People v. Flores, B214335, No. TA099668 (Cal. App. 2010):

Flores's is not the " 'rare case in which a threshold comparison of the crime committed and the sentence imposed leads to an inference of gross disproportionality.' " (Ewing v. California, supra, 538 U.S. at p. 30.) As noted, his offenses were extremely serious, involving burglarizing a residence occupied by both children and adults and attempting to sexually molest a 12-year-old child. We do not believe a sentence of life with the possibility of parole is grossly disproportionate to the crime.

7. Application of section 654.
