1Opinion of the Court

Miller, Presiding Judge.

Following a bench trial, Malcolm Henderson was convicted of child molestation (OCGA § 16-6-4 (a)) and enticing a child for indecent purposes (OCGA § 16-6-5 (a)). On appeal, Henderson contends that the evidence was insufficient to support the trial court’s judgment of conviction. We disagree and affirm.

On appeal from a criminal conviction, we view the evidence in a light most favorable to the prosecution to determine whether the evidence was sufficient to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U. S. 307, 319 (III) (B) (99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560)…
