McCoy v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
Miller, Judge.
Following a jury trial, Lisa McCoy was convicted of two counts of aggravated child molestation, two counts of child molestation, and one count of statutory rape for acts she committed against three of her children. McCoy appeals, contending that (i) the evidence was insufficient; (ii) the trial court erred by admitting similar transaction evidence; (iii) the trial court erred by admitting the testimony of an expert witness regarding child sexual abuse syndrome; and (iv) her trial counsel was ineffective. We discern no error and affirm.
