1Opinion of the Court

Eldridge, Judge.

Defendant Augustin Herrea Vasquez challenges his September 1998 conviction on one count of child molestation. We affirm.

1. In his first assertion of error, Vasquez contends that the evi dence was insufficient to support the conviction. However, on appeal, “the evidence must be viewed in a light most favorable to the verdict, and appellant no longer enjoys a presumption of innocence; moreover, on appeal this court determines evidence sufficiency, and does not weigh the evidence or determine witness credibility.” (Citations omitted.)
