How have instructions been interpreted in a sexual assault case where a jury was instructed to give considerable weight to the testimony of an accomplice?

considerable weight to accomplice testimony. Again, we disagree. The jury was appropriately told that an accomplice's testimony must be viewed with caution. And the special instruction defendant requested told the jury to use greater care and caution than you do when deciding whether to believe testimony given by an ordinary witness when deciding whether to believe the testimony of an accomplice. Reviewing the instructions as a whole as we must do (People v. Paysinger (2009) 174 Cal.App.4th 26, 30 (Paysinger).), we conclude the assertion that the jury was left with the impression the law assigns considerable weight to accomplice testimony is completely meritless.

We reject defendant's challenge to the "slight evidence" language of the accomplice instruction.
