The court acquitted the defendant on one count of sexual assault but convicted him on the remaining charge of multiple sexual acts against a child. The prosecution alleged repeated abuse over three and a half years involving the defendant and a young victim, while the defense argued for acquittal on specific counts. The court found the evidence sufficient for the primary charge but insufficient for the secondary allegation, resulting in a 30-month prison sentence with credit for pre-trial detention.

Articles 57 and 242 of the Criminal Code; the court may convict on some charges while acquitting on others if the evidence supports partial guilt, applying the principle that a single act can constitute multiple offenses or that evidence may be insufficient for all alleged counts.
