Division 1 Court of Appeals

State of Washington v Danilo Distura. Danilo Distura appeals his convictions for rape of a child and child molestation. He claims his right to a fair trial was violated by a biased juror, by remote jury selection, by the prosecutor using the word “victim,” and by the court’s use of the complaining witness’s initials in its jury instructions. He also challenges several community custody conditions and other aspects of his sentence. COA #847503. King County Superior Court #19-1-03306-8 KNT.
