SIMS, J.
Defendant has appealed from his conviction, following a jury trial, of statutory rape (Pen. Code, § 261, subd. 1) of his 8-year-old mentally retarded stepdaughter. In proceedings under former sections 5500 et seq. of the Welfare and Institutions Code, the defendant was found not to be a mentally disordered sex offender; his motion for a new trial was denied; and he was sentenced to state prison as recommended in the jury’s verdict (see Pen. Code, § 264), with an admitted prior conviction in 1958 of assault with a deadly weapon in violation of section 245 of the Penal Code.
