Description
A jury convicted Fonua Aho of child molestation and rape of his two daughters. On appeal, he claims that he was prejudiced, as a matter of law, when the trial court permitted the State to amend the information to add alternative charges of child molestation to the pending rape charges before resting its case in chief. He also claims that his convictions under the statutes that became effective in 1988 violate the prohibitions against ex post facto laws. This claim is based on the fact that the charging periods in the amended information included times before the effective dates of the statutes upon which the charges were based.
