FILED COURT OF APPEALS
DIVISION II
201~ DEC 30 AH 9: 43
STATE OF WASHINGTON
BY ~TY
IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON
DIVISION II
STATE OF WASHINGTON, No. 44744-4-II
Respondent,
v.
GEOFFREY ROBERT LAWSON, PART PUBLISHED OPINION
Appellant.
JOHANSON, C.J.- A jury found Geoffrey Lawson guilty of one count of first degree
burglary, two counts of second degree burglary, two counts of attempted voyeurism, and one count
of voyeurism. Lawson appeals, alleging that there was insufficient evidence to support the
burglary and the voyeurism convictions. Lawson contends alternatively that his burglary
convictions must be reversed because voyeurism does not constitute "a crime against a person or
property" that the burglary statute requires. In the published portion of the opinion, we hold that
voyeurism is a crime against a person and that sufficient evidence supports the burglary and
voyeurism convictions. We address Lawson's remaining claims in the unpublished portion of this
opinion. We affirm his convictions.
No. 44744-4-II
FACTS
I. BACKGROUND
In May 2012, Harrison Medical Center employee Ron Burrows entered one of the women's
restrooms and began to sanitize the stall areas. As he opened the stall door, Lawson emerged and
ran off despite Burrows's efforts to catch him. Harrison security manager Leon Smith identified
Lawson from a security video that showed Lawson entering the hospital through the loading dock
area. The video also showed Lawson entering and exiting the women's restroom over
approximately four hours.
In June 2012, security officer J.K. was in the same women's restroom at Harrison when
someone attempted to open the stall door. Startled, J.K. observed men's dress ~hoes underneath
the door. J.K. viewed security video and determined by the man's pants and shoes that he was the
same person who tried to enter the stall while she used the restroom. Meanwhile, other security
officers confirmed that the suspicious man was Lawson, who had returned to Harrison a second
time. Security Supervisor Charles Nace and Officer Dakota Muir contacted Lawson, but he
resisted, causing Nace to fall to the floor with an injury.
Also in June 2012, A.S. used the women's restroom in a Barnes and Noble store. After
washing her hands, A.S. saw a man peering into the main bathroom area over the stall door adjacent
to the one she had used. According to A.S., the man, who she later identified as Lawson, quickly
ducked, but A.S. could see him through a gap in the stall doors. A.S. reported the incident to
Barnes and Noble employees. Assistant store manager Amy King reviewed a store security video.
The video showed Lawson surreptitiously entering the clearly marked women's restroom.

No. 44744-4-II
II. PROCEDURE
The State charged Lawson by second amended information with one count of first degree
burglary, two counts of second degree burglary, one count of second degree assault, one count of
voyeurism, and two counts of attempted voyeurism. The jury returned guilty verdicts on each
charge except for second degree assault.
ANALYSIS
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE OF BURGLARY AND VOYEURISM
Lawson asserts that the State failed to introduce sufficient evidence to prove the Barnes
and Noble voyeurism charge and each of the burglary charges. We hold that there was sufficient
evidence to prove that Lawson viewed another person in a place where she had a reasonable
expectation of privacy and that a rational jury could have found that he committed assault while
in or in irrimediate flight from a building in which he was not lawfully entitled to remain. Thus,
we conclude that sufficient evidence supports Lawson's voyeurism and burglary convictions.
A. STANDARD OF REVIEW
To determine whether evidence is sufficient to sustain a conviction, we review the evidence
in the light most favorable to the State. State v. Homan, 181 Wn.2d 102, 105,330 P.3d 182 (2014)
(citing State v. Engel, 166 Wn.2d 572, 576, 210 P.3d 1007 (2009)). The relevant question is
'"whether any rational fact finder could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a
reasonable doubt."' State v. Drum, 168 Wn.2d 23, 34-35,225 P.3d 237 (2010) (quoting State v.
Wentz, 149 Wn.2d 342, 347,68 P.3d 282 (2003)). In claiming insufficient evidence, the defendant
necessarily admits the truth ofthe State's evidence and all reasonable inferences that can be drawn
from it. Drum, 168 Wn.2d at 35 (citing State v. Salinas, 119 Wn.2d 192, 201, 829 P.2d 1068
3
No. 44744-4-II
(1992)). We interpret the evidence "'most strongly against the defendant."' Homan, 181 Wn.2d
at 106 (quoting Salinas, 119 Wn.2d at 201). We consider both circumstantial and direct evidence
as equally reliable and defer to the trier of fact on issues of conflicting testimony, witness
credibility, and the persuasiveness ofthe evidence. State v. Thomas, 150 Wn.2d 821, 874-75, 83
P.3d 970 (2004).
B. VOYEURISM: REASONABLE EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY IN THE RESTROOM
Lawson contends that the State presented insufficient evidence that at Barnes and Noble
he viewed another person in a place where she would have a reasonable expectation of privacy
because he viewed A.S. when she stood by the sink in the restroom. Lawson attempts to draw a
distinction between the private toilet stall and the other areas of the restroom where there would
be no expectation of privacy. We hold that a person has a reasonable expectation of privacy inside
a restroom.
Under RCW 9A.44.115(2)(a), a person commits the crime of voyeurism if he knowingly
views another person in a place where that person would have a reasonable expectation of privacy.
For purposes of the crime of voyeurism, RCW 9A.44.115(1) states,
(c) "Place where he or she would have a reasonable expectation of privacy" means:
(i) A place where a reasonable person would believe that he or she could disrobe in privacy, without being concerned that his or her undressing was being photographed or filmed by another; or
(ii) A place where one may reasonably expect to be safe from casual or hostile intrusion or surveillance;
(d) "Surveillance" means secret observation of the activities of another person for the purpose of spying upon and invading the privacy of the person.
Lawson's argum~nt is inconsistent with this statutory definition as our courts have construed it.
4
No. 44744-A-II
In State v. Glas, 147 Wn.2d 410, 415, 54 P.3d 147 (2002), our Supreme Court considered
which places a person would '"reasonably expect to be safe from casual or hostile intrusion or
surveillance."' (Quoting RCW 9A.44.115(1)(b)(ii).) The Glas court provided examples of
locations where subsection RCW 9A.44.115(l)(c)(ii) would apply. 147 Wn.2d at 416. These
locations include places where a person may not normally disrobe, but if he or she did, he or she
would expect a certain level of privacy as they would in a person's bedroom, bathroom, or a locker
room where someone may undress in front of others. Glas, 147 Wn.2d at416. It would also apply
to places where someone may not normally disrobe, but would nonetheless expect another not to
intrude, either casually or hostilely. Glas, 147 Wn.2d at 416. Our Supreme Court distinguished
these kinds of places from purely public locations, such as the shopping mall or the Seattle Center.
Glas, 147 Wn.2d at 414.
Here, it is undisputed that AS. viewed Lawson by peeking over the restroom stall door in
a place that was clearly delineated for use by women only. Although the women's restroom was
inside an otherwise public building and while a person might not usually disrobe inside the
common area, one expects privacy in a restroom. Glas, 147 Wn.2d at 416. Specifically, a woman
using a women's restroom expects a certain degree of privacy from surveillance or from intrusions,
either casual or hostile, py members of the opposite sex. Accordingly, we hold that the State
presented evidence sufficient for a rational trier of fact to have found that Lawson committed
voyeurism by viewing A.S. in a place where she reasonably expected to be safe from casual or
5
No. 44744-4-II
hostile intrusion or surveillance and, therefore, where she had a reasonable expectation of privacy. 1
Therefore, we affirm Lawson's voyeurism conviction.
C. BURGLARY: A CRIME AGAINST PERSONS OR PROPERTY
Lawson next argues that the evidence is insufficient to support the second degree burglary
convictions because voyeurism is not "a crime against a person or property," which is a
prerequisite to a burglary conviction.2 This argument fails. Lawson relies on State v. Devitt, 152
Wn. App. 907, 912-13, 218 P.3d 647 (2009), where Division Three of this court held that
obstructing the police was not a crime against persons or property for the purpose of a conviction
for second degree burglary. There, the court reached its conclusion in part because the crime at
issue was not listed among several others as a crime against a person under RCW 9.94A.411, a
provision of the Sentencing Reform Act of 1981 (SRA), ch. 9.94A RCW, that governs
prosecutorial standards. But our Supreme Court's decision in State v. Snedden, 149 Wn.2d 914,
73 P.3d 995 (2003), offers a more apt comparison.
In Snedden, our Supreme Court held that indecent exposure was a .crime against a person
and therefore could serve as the predicate crime for second degree burglary. 149 Wn.2d at 919.
There, the court considered the same argument Lawson advances now, that the subject crime was
1 Lawson also argues that the evidence was insufficient to support the voyeurism conviction because there is no evidence that Lawson viewed A.S.'s intimate areas during the Barnes and Noble incident. But viewing a person's intimate areas is merely one of two alternative means of committing voyeurism. The State did not need to prove that its evidence supported the intimate areas alternative because it only argued the reasonable expectation of privacy means.
2 A person is guilty of second degree burglary if, with intent to commit a crime against a person or property therein, he or she enters or remains unlawfully in a building other than a vehicle or dwelling. RCW 9A.52.030(1).
6
No. 44744-4-II
not one "against a person" because it did not appear among the list of such crimes within RCW
9.94A.411. Snedden, 149 Wn.2d at 922. The Snedden court found this unpersuasive. The court
found that RCW 9.94A.411 lists crimes for the purpose of establishing a list of prosecuting
standards and, as such, serves a wholly different purpose than the second degree burglary statute.
Snedden, 149 Wn.2d at 922. Additionally, the court concluded that this list was not applicable in
context because it was enacted several years after the second degree burglary statute and, therefore,
the list could not have been considered by the legislature when adopting the burglary statute.
Snedden, 149 Wn.2d at 922. And furthermore, the SRA list and second degree burglary statutes
are contained in separate chapters of the criminal code, which supports the notion that the
legislature did not intend the SRA list to be used as an interpretive device in other chapters of the
code. Snedden, 149 Wn.2d at 922.
Additionally, the language of the voyeurism statute itself lends credence to the position
that voyeurism is a "crime against a person." A person commits voyeurism when he or she either
views another person without that person's knowledge in a place where he or she has a reasonable
expectation of privacy or when that person views the intimate areas of another person. RCW
9A.44.115(2)(a)-(b ) .
. Accordingly, we hold that voyeurism is a crime against a person and, therefore, can serve
as the predicate crime for second degree burglary. We hold further that the State presented
sufficient evidence for a rational trier of fact to conclude that Lawson is guilty ofthe second degree
burglaries because he entered the women's restroom with the intent to commit a crime against a
person or property. Therefore, we affirm Lawson's second degree burglary conviction.
7
No. 44744-4-II
D. BURGLARY: lMMEDIATEFLIGHT
Finally, Lawson argues that the evidence was insufficient to support his first degree
burglary conviction because it requires proof that the accused "in entering or while in the building
or in immediate flight therefrom, the actor or another participant in the crime ... (b) assaults any
person. RCW 9A.52.020(1). Lawson maintains that he was not in "immediate flight" from the
restroom at Harrison because he was stopped by security officer Nace elsewhere in the building
and because there was no testimony that Lawson appeared to be fleeing from the scene.
Lawson ignores the statute's language that provides that he can be guilty of frrst degree
burglary if he assaults someone "while in the building." Nace first encountered Lawson outside
the restroom that Lawson had entered previously. Nace and another officer took Lawson by each
arm to escort him towards the lobby when Lawson began to struggle to try to get away. Lawson
was shoving, pushing, pulling, and trying to free his arms. At some point during the struggle,
Lawson either kneed Nace or kicked Nace in the knee, causing Nace to fall in pain. Viewe~ in a
light most favorable to the State; this is sufficient evidence for a rational trier of fact to conclude
that the State proved that Lawson assaulted Nace "while in the building or in immediate flight
therefrom." RCW 9A.52.020(1). We hold that Lawson's claim fails for this reason.
In conclusion, we hold that sufficient evidence supports Lawson's voyeurism, second
degree burglary, and first degree burglary convictions. We address Lawson's remaining claims in
the unpublished portion of this opinion. We affirm his convictions.
A majority of the panel having determined that only the foregoing portion ofthis opinion
will be printed in the Washington Appellate Reports and that the remainder shall be filed for public
record in accordance with RCW 2.06.040, it is so ordered.
8
No. 44744-4-II
Lawson also argues that ( 1) his constitutional right to notice of the charges against him was
violated, (2) the trial court abused its discretion by denying Lawson's motion for a bill of
particulars, (3) he was denied his right to a unanimous jury verdict, (4) the trial court erred by
admitting improper propensity evidence under ER 404(b), (5) the sentencing court failed to
properly determine his offender score and standard range, and (6) the trial court erred by ordering
repayment of expenses incurred by the State in prosecuting the alleged crimes as a legal financial
obligation (LFO). Lawson also filed a statement of additional grounds (SAG) in which he alleges
several additional errors. We hold that the first five arguments lack merit, that Lawson's argument
regarding his LFOs is not properly preserved for review, and that Lawson's SAG issues either lack
merit or are not properly before this court. Accordingly, we affirm Lawson's convictions.
ADDITIONAL FACTS
I. INFORMATION AND BILL OF PARTICULARS
The charging document included the relevant dates and county of the alleged crimes, along
with details identifying victims of the voyeurism charges, but otherwise the State relied on the
statutory language to describe each offense. Lawson did not challenge the information's adequacy
before or during his trial.
But Lawson filed a bill of particulars motion before trial, requesting several additional
pieces of information, including whether the State was relying on an unlawful entry or an unlawful
remaining theory, whether there was a victim associated with the May 17 incident at Harrison, and
where A.S. was located during the Barnes and Noble incident that would give rise to a reasonable
expectation of privacy among others. The State clarified which location was associated with each
9
No. 44744-4-II
date and each charge. The trial court then denied Lawson's motion, ruling that all other
information necessary to notify Lawson had been provided through the discovery process.
II. ADMISSION OF ER 404(B) EVIDENCE
Also before trial, the State moved to admit several instances of Lawson's prior misconduct
involving either convictions or allegations of voyeurism or attempted voyeurism. Over Lawson's
objection, the trial court ruled that several incidents of prior misconduct were admissible under ER
404(b ). The following evidence was admitted at trial.
In 2008, R.A.-B. entered the women's restroom inside a Seattle church. When R.A.-B.
turned to flush the toilet, she noticed a mirror underneath the stall divider. She saw that it was a
man, whom she identified as Lawson, in the adjacent stall with his pants down, "kind oftouching
[himself]." 2 Report of Proceedings (RP) at 165. After Lawson was apprehended, witnesses
showed police officers several items they had removed from Lawson, including the mirror,
women's shoes, and women's pantyhose. Eventually, Lawson pleaded guilty to one count of
voyeurism.
In 2010, C.H. used the women's restroom at a Bremerton church. As she left the restroom,
C. H.'s sister told C.H. that she saw a man inside one of the stalls. Both women went back into the
restroom where they saw Lawson, through a gap, standing on the toilet. Lawson left the stall,
claiming that he had mistakenly used the women's restroom. Lawson later pleaded guilty to one
count of attempted voyeurism.
10
No. 44744-4-II
In 2011, Q.H. and P.H. were with their mother, Shannon,3 at her office. Q.H. and P.H.
went to use the women's restroom. P.H. looked behind her to make sure no one was looking at
her when she saw a man's face through the crack in the stalls. Q.H. recalled seeing black women's
high heeled shoes and black leggings in the stall next to her. When her daughters explained that
they had seen a man in the women's restroom, Shannon and her coworker confronted the man,
whom they identified as Lawson, outside the restroom, but Lawson was able to exit through a
stairwell. Shannon positively identified Lawson through a photomontage and he later pleaded
guilty to one count of voyeurism for the incident.
The trial court ruled that these instances of prior misconduct were admissible under the
exception for common scheme or plan because the prior acts were markedly similar and shared a
concurrence of common features with the charged crimes. The trial court concluded further that
the misconduct was relevant and admissible under the exception for motive because it directly
showed a motive to enter or remain unlawfully for the purpose of sexual gratification.
Additionally, the trial court ruled that the prior misconduct was also relevant to show a lack of
accident or mistake.
Following trial and finding Lawson guilty of all charges except the second degree assault
charge, the jury also answered "yes" on special verdict forms when asked whether the crimes
involved sexual motivation, whether a victim was present during the commission of some of the
crimes and, if so, whether the crimes involved an invasion of the victim's privacy.
3 We refer to Shannon by her first name for the sake of confidentiality.
11
No. 44744-4-II
Before the sentencing hearing, the State filed two copies of prior judgment and sentence
documents as proof of Lawson's previous voyeurism convictions. The sentencing court used these
exhibits in conjunction with the State's sentencing memorandum to calculate Lawson's offender
score and standard range. Lawson objected to the presentence report, but not to the State's
calculation of his offender score. The court then sentenced Lawson to 176 months. Lawson
appeals.
ANALYSIS
I. ADEQUACY OF CHARGING INFORMATION
Lawson contends that the State violated his right to notice under the state and federal
constitutions because the charging document was factually inadequate. We hold that the charging
document was constitutionally adequate because the State is entitled to charge a defendant using
the language of the statute when the crime is a statutory offense.
A. STANDARD OF REVIEW AND RULES OF LAW
The Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides in part, "In all criminal
prosecutions, the accused shall ... be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation." Article
I, section 22 of the Washington State Constitution provides in part, "In criminal prosecutions the
accused shall have the right ... to demand the nature and cause of the accusation against him."
We review a challenge to the sufficiency of a charging document de novo. State v. Zillyette,
178 Wn.2d 153, 158, 307 P.3d 712 (2013) (citing State v. Siers, 174 Wn.2d 269,273-74,274 P.3d
358 (2012)). A charging document must allege '"[a]ll essential elements of a crime,"' statutory or
otherwise to provide a defendant with sufficient notice of the nature and cause of the accusation
against him. Zillyette, 178 Wn.2d at 158 (quoting State v. Kjorsvik, 117 Wn.2d 93, 97, 812 P.2d
12
No. 44744-4-II
86 (1991); U.S. CONST. amend. VI; WASH. CONST. art. I, § 22. To satisfy this requirement, the
information must allege (1) "every element of the charged offense" and (2) "particular facts
supporting them." State v. Nonog, 169 Wn.2d220, 226,237 P.3d250 (2010) (citing State v. Leach,
113 Wn.2d 679, 688, 782 P.2d 552 (1989)); see also State v. Simms, 171 Wn.2d 244, 250, 250
P.3d 107 (2011). The primary purpose of the rule is to give the defendant sufficient notice of his
charges so he can prepare an adequate defense. State v. Tandecki, 153 Wn.2d 842, 846, 109 P.3d
398 (2005). Where the information's sufficiency is challenged for the first time on appeal, we
construe the document liberally in favor of validity. Zillyette, 178 Wn.2d at 161 (citing Kjorsvik,
117 Wn.2d at 1 05).
We also distinguish between charging documents that are constitutionally deficient and
those that are merely "vague.~' Leach, 113 Wn.2d at 686. A constitutionally deficient information
is subject to dismissal for failure to state an offense on the face of the charging document by
omitting allegations of the essential elements constituting the offense charged. 4 Leach, 113 Wn.2d
at 686-87. An information that states each statutory element of a crime, but is vague as to some
other significant matter, may be corrected under a bill of particulars. Leach, 113 Wn.2d at 687.
B. INFORMATION NOT CONSTITUTIONALLY DEFICIENT
The State charged Lawson with first and second degree burglary and voyeurism under
RCW 9A.52.020(1), .030(1), and RCW 9A.44.115(2).
The information alleged in relevant part,
On or about May 17, 2012, in the County of Kitsap, State of Washington, the above-named Defendant, with intent to commit a crime against a person or

property therein, entered or remained unlawfully in a building; contrary to the Revised Code of Washington 9A.52.030(1) [Count I].
On or about June 2, 2012, in the County ofKitsap, State of Washington, the above-named Defendant, for the purpose of arousing or gratifying the sexual desire of any person, did knowingly view, photograph, or film (a) another person, to wit: AKS, 06/10/1986, without that person's knowledge and consent while the person was in a place where he or she would have a reasonable expectation of privacy; and/or (b) the intimate areas of another person, to wit: AKS, 06/10/1986, without that person's knowledge and consent under circumstances where the person has a reasonable expectation of privacy, whether in a public or private place; contrary to the Revised Code of Washington 9A.44.115(2) and Laws of 2003, Chapter 213. [Count IV].
Clerk's Papers (CP) at 1-5.
Frequently, charging information is challenged as deficient for its failure to allege essential
legal elements of a charged crime. But here, Lawson asserts that the information was
constitutionally inadequate because it failed to sufficiently allege the facts underlying each element
of the offenses and because the charging document merely "parroted" the language of each statute.
He does not claim that he was unaware of the nature of the charges against him. Instead, Lawson
relies on the following language from Leach, where the court said that
the "essential elements" rule requires that a charging document allege facts supporting every element of the offense, in addition to adequately identifying the crime charged. This is not quite the same as a requirement to "state every statutory element of" the crime charged.
113 Wn.2d at 689. But Lawson's argument is not convincing because the Leach court also
reaffirmed a longstanding rule that an information may rely on the language of a statute if the
statute defines the offense with certainty:
In an information ... for a statutory offense, it is sufficient to charge in the language of the statute if the statute defines the crime sufficiently to apprise an accused person with reasonable certainty of the nature of the accusation.
113 Wn.2d at 686 (citing State v. Grant, 89 Wn.2d 678, 686, 5,75 P.2d 210 (1978)). . I
14
No. 44744-4-II
And Leach "does not impose any additional requirement that the State allege facts beyond
those that sufficiently support the elements of the crime charged or that the State describe the facts
with great specificity." State v. Winings, 126 Wn. App. 75, 85, 107 P.3d 141 (2005) (citing Leach,
113 Wn.2d at 688). Moreover, even if a charging document does fail to allege specific facts, this
failure may render the charging document vague, but it does not render it constitutionally deficient.
State v. Laramie, 141 Wn. App. 332, 340, 169 P.3d 859 (2007).
Here, construed liberally, the information provided Lawson with sufficient notice of the
charges against him. Specifically, the information alleged that on May 17, June 2, and June 19,
2012, Lawson (1) entered or remained in a building, (2) unlawfully, and (3) with intent to commit
a crime against a person or property. It further alleged that on June 2, 2012, Lawson (1) knowingly
viewed, filmed, or photographed, (2) another person, (3) without that person's knowledge, (4) in
a place where the other person had a reasonable expectation of privacy, or (5) viewed the intimate
areas of another person. Accordingly, we hold that the information adequately apprised Lawson
about the nature of the charges and that it was therefore constitutionally sufficient. But because
Lawson requested a bill of particulars, we next address whether the information was vague to the
extent that the trial court abused its discretion by denying Lawson's motion for the same.
II. BILL OF PARTICULARS
Lawson argues that the trial court abused its discretion when it denied his motion for a bill
of particulars because the trial court's denial infringed upon his right to demand the nature and
cause of the accusations against him. We disagree because no bill of particulars is required where
the information called for has been provided either in the charging document or in some other
satisfactory form.
15
No. 44744-4-II
A. STANDARD OF REVIEW
Whether or not to grant a request for a bill of particulars is a matter left to the discretion of
the trial court. State v. Noltie, 116 Wn.2d 831, 845, 809 P .2d 190 (1991 ); CrR 2.1 (c). 5 Discretion
is abused when it is exercised on untenable grounds or for untenable reasons. State v. Dobbs, 180
Wn.2d 1, 10, 320 P.3d 705 (2014) (citing State v. Powell, 126 Wn.2d 244, 258, 893 P.2d 615
(1995)).
A criminal defendant has "a constitutional right to be informed of the nature and cause of
the accusation against him" to enable him to prepare a defense. State v. Bergeron, 105 Wn.2d 1,
18, 711 P.2d 1000 (1985) (citing U.S. CONST. amend. VI; CONST. art. I,§ 22 (amend. 10)). The
purpose of a bill of particulars is to "amplify or clarify particular matters essential to the defense."
State v. Holt, 104 Wn.2d 315, 321, 704 P.2d 1189 (1985). But no bill of particulars is required if
the particulars are already in the charging document or if the information called for has been
provided by the government in some other satisfactory form. Nollie, 116 Wn.2d at 845.
B. DENIAL OFLA WSON'S MOTION
Before trial began, Lawson filed a motion for a bill of particulars alleging that he needed
several specific pieces of information to rriount his defense. Lawson argued that he was entitled
to additional information from the State including whether the State was relying on unlawful entry
or unlawful remaining, and whether it was relying on an intended crime against a person or against
property for purposes of the burglary charge. Lawson also suggested that he needed to know what
5 CrR 2.1 (c) provides, "Bill of Particulars. The court may direct the filing of a bill of particulars. A motion for a bill of particulars may be made before arraignment or within 10 days after arraignment or at such later time as the court may permit."
16
No. 44744-4-II
alleged acts constituted his "common scheme or plan" for purposes of the ER 404(b) evidence the
State intended to use against him. CP at 322. At the hearing on his motion, Lawson argued that
he was entitled to the "specific date and time of the offense, its location, the name of the
complainant and the victim, and the means by which [he] allegedly committed the offense." RP
(Jan. 4, 20 13) at 84.
But Lawson was not entitled to a bill of particulars because the vast majority of this
information had been.made.readily available to Lawson in the charging document and through the
discovery process. Lawson did not dispute the State's contention that Lawson had been provided
full discove~y and did not present any argument to the contrary.6 The charging document already
contained the date, location (by county), and the name and birthdate of any victim involved.
Additionally, the trial court required the State to supplement the charging document by describing
which building was associated with the charge on each of the dates in question. Subsequently, the
trial court ruled that the rest of the information to which Lawson was entitled had already been
provided through the discovery process. Lawson did not object to the court's ruling.
And finally, the State was not required to disclose which alternative means of burglary it
sought to pursue to prove Lawson's guilt. Rather, "[w]hen a statute provides that a crime may be
committed in alternative ways or by alternative means, the information may charge one or all of
6 The statements of probable cause and investigation reports were attached to the first amended information (amended to add the Barnes and Noble incident). These attachments contained narratives relating to each incident that described the facts and the parties involved in detail. Although the State proceeded to trial on the second amended information, the only purpose of the final amendment was to correct a clerical error related to the date of one of the incidents. Additionally, the State asserted that it had essentially provided Lawson with the testimony of every witness because "[i]t's in the reports" and "their testimony will be consistent with that." RP (Dec. 3, 2012) at 9.
17
No. 44744-4-II
the alternatives, provided the alternatives are not repugnant to one another." State v. Bray, 52 Wn.
App. 30, 34, 756 P.2d 1332 (1988). Here, the State opted to include each ofthe alternative means
in the information. Accordingly, we hold that the trial court properly denied Lawson's motion for
a bill of particulars because any particular information to which Lawson was entitled appeared in
the information or was made available in another satisfactory form, namely, the discovery process.
Noltie, 116 Wn.2d at 844. Lawson's claim fails.
Ill. UNANIMOUS JURY VERDICT
Lawson contends that his right to a unanimous jury verdict was infringed both by the trial
court's failure to provide a unanimity instruction when the State relied on multiple acts to prove
one offense and also when the court instructed the jury on alternative means that were not each
supported by the evidence. 7 We hold that no unanimity instruction was required because the
multiple acts that gave rise to the first degree burglary charge constituted a continuing course of
conduct, because the State elected and pursued only one means of committing burglary, and
because the State elected and pursued only one of two alternative means of committing voyeurism.
A. MULTIPLE ACTS
Here, Lawson contends that the second degree burglary conviction violated his right to a
unanimous jury verdict because the State introduced evidence both of Lawson's entrance to
Harrison through the loading dock as well as Lawson's entrance into the women's restroom.
Lawson argues that a Petrich instruction should have been given because it was unclear upon
7 Lawson did request a State v. Petrich instruction, but his argument was related ·to alternative means not "multiple acts." 101 Wn.2d 566, 683 P.2d 173 (1984). But this issue asserts a manifest constitutional error and may be raised for the first time on appeal. State v. Bobenhouse, 166 Wn.2d 881, 893, 214 P.3d 907 (2009).
18
No. 44744-4-II
which act the jury voted to convict. We construe Lawson's entrance into Harrison and his ,
subsequent entrance into the women's restrooms as a continuing course of conduct.
We review the adequacy of jury instructions de novo. State v. Pirtle, 127 Wn.2d 628, 656,
904 P.2d 245 (1995), cert. denied, 518 U.S. 1026 (1996). Our state constitution requires that in a
criminal prosecution, an impartial jury render a unanimous verdict. CONST. art. I, §§ 21, 22; State
v. Ortega-Martinez, 124 Wn.2d 702, 707, 881 P.2d231 (1994); State v. Stephens, 93 Wn.2d 186,
190, 607 P.2d 304 (1980). Washington jurisprudence has produced two distinct lines of analysis
regarding the jury unanimity requirement. The review standard for whether the failure to provide
a unanimity instruction was error hinges on whether we are dealing with an alternative means case
or a multiple acts case. State v. Bobenhouse, 166 Wn.2d 881, 892, 214 P.3d 907 (2009). When
the State presents evidence of multiple acts that couid each form the basis for one charged crime,
the State must choose which of the acts it relied on or the court must give a Petrich instruction to
the jury, requiring them to agree on a specific criminal act.8 State v. Coleman, 159 Wn.2d 509,
511, 150 P.3d 1126 (2007).
But the necessity for a unanimity instruction does not arise where the evidence indicates a
"continuing course of conduct." State v. Locke, 175 Wn. App. 779, 803, 307 P.3d 771 (2013),
review denied, 179 Wn.2d 1021 (2014). To determine whether there is a continuing course of
conduct, we evaluate the facts in a commonsense manner considering the time separating the
criminal acts and whether the criminal acts involved the same parties, location, and ultimate
purpose. State v. Brown, 159 Wn. App. 1, 14, 248 P .3d 518 (20 1 0), review denied, 171 Wn.2d
8 Petrich, 101 Wn.2d at 572-73.
19
No. 44744-4-II
1 015 (20 11 ). Evidence that a defendant engaged in a series of actions intended to secure the same
objective supports the characterization of those actions as a continuing course of conduct rather
than as several distinct acts. State v. Fiallo-Lopez, 78 Wn. App. 717, 724, 899 P.2d 1294 (1995).
Considering the facts in a commonsense manner compels the conclusion that Lawson
entered Harrison and the women's restroom therein as part of a continuing course of conduct for
the purpose of committing voyeurism. The separate acts were close in time and were committed
at the same location. Assuming, without deciding, that entry through the private loading dock area
was a criminal act, Lawson's entry into Harrison was accomplished to further his ultimate purpose
of gaining access to the women's restrooms. Lawson could not have reached his intended
destination without first entering the main building itself. We hold that no unanimity instruction
was required because Lawson's multiple acts were intended to secure the Sai?e objective, to enter
the women's restroom with the intent to commit voyeurism.
B. ALTERNATIVE MEANS
Lawson also argues that his right to a unanimous jury verdict was violated because the
State failed to produce substantial evidence supporting each ofthe alternative means of the alleged
crimes. Whether substantial evidence exists to support each alternative means of the crimes
charged is a matter we need not address because the State argued and presented evidence to the
jury only as to one means for both the burglary and voyeurism charges.
Our analysis regarding a challenge to the unanimity requirement in an alternative means
case differs slightly from a challenge involving multiple acts. When a jury is instructed as to more
than one means of committing a criminal offense, our courts safeguard a defendant's constitutional
right to a unanimous verdict by affirming a conviction only when (1) substantial evidence supports
20
No. 44744-4-II
each alternative means on which evidence or argument was presented, or (2) evidence and
argument is presented on only one means. State v. Witherspoon, 171 Wn. App. 271,285,286 P.3d
996 (2012) (quoting State v. Lobe, 140 Wn. App. 897,905, 167 P.3d 627 (2007)),_aff'd, 180 Wn.2d
875, 329 P.3d 888 (2014).
1. BURGLARY CHARGES
Second degree burglary can be committed by alternative means: either by unlawfully .
entering a building or unlawfully remaining in a building. RCW 9A.52.030. Lawson asserts that
-the State did not introduce substantial evidence to support the "unlawful entry" means. We hold
that Lawson's claim fails because, notwithstanding whether there exists enough evidence to
support the unlawful entry means, the State only presented evidence and argument on the unlawful
remaining means.9
For purposes of the burglary charges, the trial court's "to-convict" instruction provides,
A person commits the crime of burglary in the second degree when he or she enters or remains unlawfully in a building with intent to commit a crime against a person or property therein.
A person enters or remains unlawfully in a building when he or she is not then licensed, invited, or otherwise privileged to so enter or remain.
A license or privilege to enter or remain in a building which is only partly open to the public is not a license or privilege to enter or remain in that part of the building which is not open to the public[.]
"Unlawful remaining" occurs when (1) a person has lawfully entered a building pursuant to license, invitation or privilege; (2) the invitation, license or privilege is expressly or impliedly limited; (3) the person's conduct violates such limits; and (4) the person's conduct is accompanied by intent to commit a crime in the building.
9 At one point, the State claimed that it was proceeding under both an unlawful entry and an unlawful remaining theory. But the State did so during a colloquy with the trial court, outside the presence of the jury. Before the jury, the State only argued the unlawful remaining theory.
21
No. 44744-4-II
CP at 517.
While the instruction obviously refers to unlawful entry, the record establishes that the .
State only argued the unlawful remaining theory before the jury. In closing argument, the
prosecutor discussed the elements of the "to-convict" instructions on the burglary charges. He
said,
Let's start with the first part, entered or remained unlawfully. The unlawful remaining, the State's burden to prove_ if a person lawfully enters a building purs:uant to license, privilege, or invitation. Start with that. It's Harrison Hospital. It's not in dispute. Most people, general public, can come into Harrison Hospital.
Number 2, the invitation, license, or privilege is expressly or impliedly limited. There's a sign on the door that says women's restroom. It expressly states who can go into that area. Much like an employee only sign, this tells you who is permitted to go in that area. Impliedly, culturally, our society knows, from a young age, women. This sign means women. The bathrooms are divided for a sense of privacy. The person's conduct violates such limits. You saw him go into the women's restroom. You heard from Mr. Burrows, who found him in the women's restroom in the handicapped stall. And his conduct is accompanied by an intentto commit a crime in the building.
4 RP at 559-60.
The State's theory throughout the duration of trial was that Lawson exceeded the scope of
any license or privilege he may have had inside Harrison when he went into the women's restroom
and remained there for extended periods of time. The State never argued or implied that the
restroom itself should be considered a separate building. And it is clear from closing argument
that the legality of Lawson's entry into Harrison itself was not in dispute. Moreover, the prosecutor
went element by element through the definition for unlawful remaining, arguing to the jury that
the State's evidence established each. Accordingly, "'[t]here [wa]s no danger that the jury based
its guilty verdict on the unsupported alternative means."' Witherspoon, 171 Wn. App. at 287 (first
22
No. 44744-4-II
alteration in original) (quoting Lobe, 140 Wn. App. at 909 (Hunt, J., dissenting)). We hold that no
unanimity instruction was required for this reason.
2. VOYEURISM CHARGE
There are two means by which Lawson ·could have committed voyeurism: viewing another
person in a place where that person had a reasonable expectation of privacy, or viewing the
intimate areas of another person without that person's knowledge. RCW 9A.44.115(2)(a)-(b).
Lawson argues that the trial court should have given a unanimity instruction because the State
failed to present substantial evidence to support the "intimate areas" means of committing
voyeurism. We disagree.
Although viewing intimate areas may be an alternative means of committing voyeurism,
there is no mention of "intimate areas" anywhere in the trial court's instructions to the jury. The
court's "to-convict" instruction read,
A person commits the crime of voyeurism when, for the purposes of arousing or gratifying the sexual desire of any person, the person knowingly views a second person without the second person's knowledge and consent, and while the second person is being viewed, the second person is in a place where he or she would have a reasonable expectation of privacy.
CP at 527. This instruction contains only the expectation of privacy means. The instruction then
provides definitions for "[v]iew" and "[a] place where a person would have a reasonable
expectation of privacy." CP at 527.
The State also did not attempt to introduce any evidence which purported to establish that
Lawson viewed any victim's intimate areas. And in closing, the prosecutor argued only that
Lawson viewed A.S. (the victim of the Barnes and Noble incident) while she was in the restroom,
a place where she reasonably expected privacy, free from casual or hostile intrusion or
23
No. 44744-4-II
surveillance. Accordingly, like the burglary convictions, "'[t]here [wa]s no danger that the jury
based its guilty verdict on the unsupported alternative means."' Witherspoon, 171 Wn. App. at
287 (first alteration in original) (quoting Lobe, 140 Wn. App. at 909 (Hunt, J., dissenting)). We
so hold.
IV. ER 404(B) EVIDENCE
We turn next to Lawson's argument that the trial court misinterpreted ER 404(b) and
violated Lawson's Fourteenth Amend.ment right to due process by admitting improper propensity
evidence. We hold that the trial court correctly interpreted ER 404(b) and did not abuse its
discretion by admitting the evidence of Lawson's prior misconduct under recognized exceptions
to the general rule.
A. STANDARD OF REVIEW
We review the trial court's interpretation ofER 404(b) de novo as a matter oflaw. State
v. Foxhoven, 161 Wn.2d 168,174, 163 P.3d 786 (2007). Ifthe trial court interprets ER 404(b)
correctly, we review the trial court's ruling to admit or exclude evidence of misconduct for an
abuse of discretion. Foxhoven, 161 Wn.2d at 174. A trial court abuses its discretion where it fails
to abide by the rule's requirements. Foxhoven, 161 Wn.2d at 174.
Generally, evidence of a defendant's prior misconduct is inadmissible to demonstrate the
accused's propensity to commit the crime charged. ER 404(b) 10; State v. Fisher, 165 Wn.2d 727,
10 ER 404(b) provides, Evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or acts is not admissible to prove the character ofa person in order to show action in conformity therewith. It may, however, be admissible for other purposes, such as proof of motive, opportunity, intent, preparation, plan, knowledge, identity, or absence of mistake or accident.
24
No. 44744-4-II
744, 202 P.3d 937 (2009). But ER 404(b) allows the introduction of prior misconduct for other
purposes like demonstrating motive or intent, common scheme or plan, or lack of mistake or
accident. Fisher, 165 Wn.2d at 744 n.2. And we readER 404(b) in conjunction withER 403: ER
403 requires the trial court to exercise its discretion in excluding relevant evidence that would be
unfairly prejudicial.
Prior to the admission of misconduct evidence, the court must (1) find by a preponderance
of the evidence the misconduct actually occurred, (2) identify the purpose of admitting the
evidence, (3) determine the relevance of the evidence to prove an element of the crime, and ( 4)
weigh the probative value against the prejudicial effect of the evidence. Fisher, 165 Wn.2d at 745
(citing State v. Lough, 125 Wn.2d 847, 853, 889 P.2d 487 (1995); Foxhoven, 161 Wn.2d at 175).
Doubtful cases must be resolved in favor of exclusion. State v. Thang, 145 Wn.2d 630, 642, 41
P.3d 1159 (2002).
B. EVIDENCE OF PRIOR MISCONDUCT PROPERLY ADMITIED
In support of his assertion that the trial court misinterpreted ER 404(b) and abused its
discretion by admitting the prior misconduct, Lawson cites the procedure employed by the court
in Fisher. There, the State charged Timothy Fisher with crimes stemming from the sexual abuse
ofhis former step-daughter. Fisher, 165 Wn.2d at 733. Before trial, the State sought to introduce
evidence that Fisher physically abused his former step-children in order to explain the children's
fear of Fisher as the cause ofthe step-daughter's lengthy delay in reporting the abuse. Fisher, 165
Wn.2d at 734. The trial court determined that the physical abuse evidence would be admissible
25
No. 44744-4-II
under ER 404(b), albeit conditionally. 11 165 Wn.2d at 734. The court recognized the highly
prejudicial nature of the physical abuse evidence and accordingly conditioned admissibility on the
defense's opening of the door. Fisher, 165 Wn.2d at 734. Only if the defense raised the delay in
reporting as an issue could the State introduce the evidence. Fisher, 165 Wn.2d at 734, 746.
Our Supreme Court held that the trial court's ruling was proper and concluded that the
ruling made sense given the fact that Fisher was not on trial for or charged with physical abuse
and the physical abuse only became relevant if the defense inquired into the delayed reporting.
Fisher, 165 Wn.2d at 746. Here, Lawson urges us to hold that the trial court erred by failing to
similarly condition the admissibility of Lawson's prior misconduct on whether he raised certain
issues. Specifically, Lawson argues that because he never asserted that his entry into the women's
restroom was an accident and because he never challenged the sexual gratification aspect of the
charge, that the trial court should not have admitted any evidence of those issues. But unlike
Fisher, Lawson was on trial for voyeurism and therefore it was proper for the trial court to admit
evidence regarding prior instances of voyeurism or attempted voyeurism as lorig as ER 404(b)
exceptions applied and the trial court properly weighed the potential prejudice of the evidence
against its probative value. Contrary to Lawson's view, the Fisher court did not rule that a court
must conditionER 404(b) evidence on the defense's broaching certain topics, only that such an
approach made sense on the facts of that case.
Here, during the ER 404(b) hearing, the trial court properly applied the rule and carefully
considered whether exceptions applied based on the facts before it. The trial court found that each
11 These rulings were separate and distinct from rulings concerning Fisher's abuse of his current step-children at the time of trial. The Fisher court concluded that the trial court had abused its discretion by admitting evidence regarding the current step-children. Fisher, 165 Wn.2d at 750.
26
No. 44744-4-II
instance of prior misconduct that it ruled admissible had occurred by a preponderance of the
evidence. The trial court then found that each ofthe prior instances showed motive and Lawson's
common scheme.
As to each admissible instance of prior misconduct, the trial court also found that the
evidence was relevant and that the probative value of the evidence outweighed its prejudicial
effect. The trial court also memorialized its rulings in detailed findings of fact and conclusions of
law. The fact that the trial court refused to admit some of the prior misconduct because the alleged
instances were either too remote in time, too dissimilar, or too prejudicial bolsters the position that
the trial court did not haphazardly admit the evidence before properly considering the applicable
factors set forth by our courts. Furthermore, the trial court consistently provided limiting
instructions each time an ER 404(b) witness testified, imploring the jury only to consider the
evidence for the limited purposes for which it ruled the prior misconduct admissible. Accordingly,
we hold that the trial court did not abuse its discretion by admitting evidence of prior misconduct
under ER 404(b).
V. OFFENDER SCORE AND SENTENCING RANGE
We turn to Lawson's argument that his sentence must be vacated when the sentencing court
failed to properly determine his offender score and sentencing range. We hold that the sentencing
court properly determined Lawson's offender score and standard range because the State proved
Lawson's criminal history by a preponderance of the evidence.
A trial court must conduct a sentencing hearing before imposing a sentence on a convicted
defendant. RCW 9.94A.500(1). A defendant's offender score affects the sentencing range and is
generally calculated by adding together the defendant's current offenses and the prior convictions.
27
No. 44744-4-II
RCW 9.94A.589(l)(a). It is well established that the State has the burden to prove prior
convictions at sentencing by a preponderance of the evidence. State v. Hunley, 175 Wn.2d 901,
909-10, 287 P.3d 584 (2012) (citing State v. Ford, 137 Wn.2d 472,479-80, 973 P.2d 452 (1999)).
"The best evidence of a prior conviction is a certified copy of the judgment." Ford, 13 7 Wn.2d at
480.
Lawson's argument that the State provided evidence of only one prior conviction for
voyeurism is unpersuasive. Attached to its sentencing memorandum, the State provided copies of
judgment and sentence documents that established that Lawson had two prior convictions for
. voyeurism. The State and the trial court relied on no more· than these two previous convictions
and the convictions Lawson now appeals in calculating his offender score. Therefore, the trial
court relied on no more information than that which was admitted by the plea agreement, or
admitted, acknowledged, or proved in a trial or at the time of sentencing. RCW 9.94A.530(2). We
hold that Lawson's claim fails.
VI. LEGAL FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS
Finally, Lawson argues for the first time on appeal that the sentencing court lacked the
statutory authority to order him to pay the cost of court-appointed attorney fees when he
represented himself throughout the trial. Lawson argues further that the trial court erred by
ordering him to pay costs and fees without first inquiring as to his present or future ability to satisfy
those obligations. We decline to exercise our discretion to review this issue raised for the first
time on appeal. RAP 2.5(a); State v. Blazina, 174 Wn. App. 906, 911, 301 P.3d 492, review
28
No. 44744-4-II
granted, 178 Wn.2d 1010 (2013). We hold that Lawson failed to properly preserve the issue for
review. 12
VII. STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL GROUNDS
Lawson filed a SAG in which he alleges several additional errors. We hold that these
claims likewise fail. 13
A. ACCESS TO THE COURTS
Lawson asserts that he was subjected to "overwhelmingly oppressive interference" and
denied access to the courts. SAG at 15. Lawson claims that the trial court did not give him
adequate time to prepare, restricted his ability to interview witnesses, and did not provide him with
adequate resources. We hold that Lawson was not denied access to the court.
Article I, section 22 affords a pretrial detainee, who has exercised his constitutiomil right
to represent himself, a right of reasonable access to State-provided resources that will enable him
to prepare a meaningful pro se defense. What measures are necessary or appropriate to constitute
reasonable access lies within the sound discretion of the trial court. State v. Silva, 107 Wn. App.
605, 622-23, 27 P.3d 663 (2001).
12 Regarding Lawson's claim that he should not be required to pay court-appointed attorney fees because he proceeded pro se, we note that he did have a court-appointed attorney representing him from June 2012 until November 2012.
13 We already addressed Lawson's argument that his sentence was unconstitutional because his offender score was improperly calculated. This claim was raised and addressed as part of Lawson's opening brief. Likewise, we decline to address Lawson's argument regarding the cumulative error doctrine because the cumulative error doctrine does not warrant reversal where this court finds that there has been no error. Lawson also appears to make an equal protection argument based on membership in a suspect class as "black and male." SAG at 30. But he fails to inform this court as to the nature and occurrence ofthe alleged error. RAP 10.10(c).
29
No. 44744-4-II
In Silva, Silva did not have physical access to a law library; rather, he was given copies of
cases and legal publications he requested by citation. 107 Wn. App. at 623. The trial court did
not assign Silva an investigator, nor was he always given advance notice to prepare for interviews.
Silva, 107 Wn. App. at 624. Contrary to Silva's assertion that the State provided insufficient
recourses, Division One of this court found that Silva's access to legal material, pencils and paper,
copying services, inmate's telephone, ability to serve subpoenas through the sheriffs office,
witness interviews, and postage, among other things, constituted reasonable tools necessary to
prepare a meaningful pro se defense. Silva, 107 Wn. App. at 625-26.
Here, Lawson opted to represent himself notwithstanding the trial court's suggestion to the
contrary. Lawson was then appointed an investigator to arrange and conduct interviews, which
the prosecutor expressly stated would be accommodated and made available at the State's office.
The trial court granted continuances to allow Lawson to prepare. Lawson was provided with
copies of the State's exhibits, with pencils, paper, access to the jail law library, the inmate's
telephone, the use of the sheriffs office to serve subpoenas, and to postage. Accordingly, as in
Silva, Lawson was provided with the tools that our State constitution requires as necessary to
prepare a meaningful pro se defense. 107 Wn. App. at 625-26. Lawson's claim fails.
B. BURGLARY STATUTE
1. OVERBREADTH
Lawson argues that the burglary statutes under which he was convicted are
unconstitutionally overbroad and are also void for vagueness. Regarding his claim thatch. 9A.52
RCW is overbroad, Lawson asserts that the statute effectively criminalized his lawful protest
against the City of Bremerton for its "deprivation of his property right to water." SAG at 25.
30
No. 44744-4-II
. Lawson argues further that the statute is overbroad because it is not unlawful for a member of the
public to use restroom facilities designated for the opposite sex.
We review de novo a trial court's interpretation of constitutional provisions and legislative
enactments. State v. Imme/t, 173 Wn.2d 1, 6, 267 P.3d 305 (2011). Generally, legislative
enactments are presumed to be constitutional. Immelt, 173 Wn.2d at 6. "'A law is overbroad if it
sweeps within its prohibitions constitutionally protected free speech activities.'" State v. Bradford,
175 Wn. App. 912, 922, 308 P.3d 736 (2013) (quoting City ofSeattle v. Huff, 111 Wn.2d 923, 925,
767 P.2d 572 (1989)), review denied, 179 Wn.2d 1010 (2014).
But the statute, by its own language, is not unconstitutionally overbroad because it
necessarily exempts lawful conduct and the First Amendment does not purport to protect criminal
activity. To be guilty of burglary in any degree, a person must (1) unlawfully enter or remain, (2)
with the intent to commit a crime, (3) against a person or property. Lawson's argument is
unavailing because if his version of the events were believed, the State could not have proved the
elements of a burglary beyond a reasonable doubt. Regardless of the legality of using a restroom
meant for members of the opposite sex, Lawson would not have been guilty of burglary had he
entered the women's restroom for the purpose of a constitutionally protected, lawful demonstration
of some kind. Instead, the State's evidence showed that Lawson entered the women's restrooms
with the intent to commit voyeurism, which is not constitutionally protected free speech or
conduct. Lawson's claim fails.
2. VAGUENESS
Lawson contends that the burglary statute was unconstitutionally vague. But Lawson
makes no argument related to principles of vagueness. Instead, he argues that proof of intent to
31
No. 44744-4-II
commit a crime does not establish unlawful entry and vice versa. Lawson fails to inform this court
as to the nature and occurrence ofhis vagueness challenge. RAP lO.lO(c).
C. "VINDICTIVE PROSECUTION"
Lawson contends that the State engaged in "vindictive" prosecution because the State
applied different "charging standards" to him as it did to other "similarly situated" criminal
defendants in Kitsap County. SAG at 9. Lawson suggests that the State's decision to prosecute
him in this manner, because he is African American and because he is a male, signifies the "re
emergence of unconstitutional 'Jim Crow' laws." SAG at 9.
But Lawson cites no authority to support the proposition that the State must consider
"similarly situated" criminal defendants when it determines which crimes it will charge. Most
importantly, there is no evidence nor are there facts existing in the record to support this contention
or any contention that the State engaged in racial or gender discrimination by charging him as it
did. And if a defendant wishes to raise issues on appeal that require evidence or facts not in the
existing trial record, the appropriate means of doing so is through a personal restraint petition
(PRP). State v. McFarland, 127 Wn.2d 322,335,899 P.2d 1251 (1995). We hold Lawson's claim
fails for this reason.
D. INEFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE OF COUNSEL
Lawson argues that he received ineffective assistance of counsel during the portion of the
proceedings where he was represented because his appointed counsel failed to sufficiently
investigate Lawson's case, resulting in lost access to exculpatory evidence, and because counsel
failed to request the presence of witnesses at the ER 404(b) hearing.
32
No. 44744-4-II
Lawson offers no authority to support his claim that witnesses must be present during a
pretrial hearing regarding the admissibility of ER 404(b) evidence. Furthermore, whether
Lawson's appointed counsel sufficiently investigated his case again relies on evidence and facts
outside the record before this court. Accordingly, this issue is properly raised in a PRP.
McFarland, 127 Wn.2d at 335.
E. PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT
Lawson appears to contend that the State committed prosecutorial misconduct because the
State presented false and misleading evidence of sexual impropriety and because the prosecutor
committed misconduct in closing argument by suggesting to the jury that Lawson was witnessed
"touching himself in front of an. 11-year old girl." SAG at 32. We hold that no misconduct
occurred because the "false evidence" was witness testimony and the State merely mentioned the
same testimony in closing argument.
To establish prosecutorial misconduct, Lawson has the burden of establishing that the
challenged conduct was both improper and prejudicial. State v. Cheatam, 150 Wn.2d 626, 652,
81 P.3d 830 (2003). If a defendant fails to object to misconduct at trial, he fails to preserve the
issue unless he establishes that the misconduct was so flagrant and ill-intentioned that it caused an
enduring prejudice that could not have been cured with an instruction to the jury. State v.
Thorgerson, 172 Wn.2d 438, 442, 258 P.3d 43 (2011). The focus of this inquiry is more on
whether the resulting prejudice could have been cured, rather than the flagrant or ill-intentioned
nature ofthe remark. State v. Emery, 174 Wn.2d 741, 762,278 P.3d 653 (2012).
Here, the "false and misleading" evidence to which Lawson refers appears to be testimony
from R.A.-B., the victim of the Seattle church incident. R.A.-B. testified that she saw Lawson in
33
No. 44744-4-II
the adjacent stall with his pants down, "kind oftouching [himself]." 2 RP at 165. Lawson contests·
the veracity of this testimony because R.A.-B. stated that she only saw Lawson pulling his pants
up during a defense interview related to that case. But the fact that R.A.-B.'s testimony during
Lawson's trial was not identical to statements she made years earlier does not mean that her
statements were untrue. Even were that the case, Lawson fails to show how perjury by a witness
would support a prosecutorial misconduct claim. R.A.-B. testified under oath. There is nothing
in the record to suggest the State presented "false evidence."
Lawson also claims for the first time on appeal that the State committed prosecutorial
misconduct in closing argument when the prosecutor said, "And in the prior cases, he's viewing
little girls in the women's restroom ... and he's touching himself." 4 RP at 586. Lawson argues
that these are "material misstatements." But Lawson failed to object below and his claim fails
because the prosecutor did not make any improper argument. The evidence demonstrated that
Lawson did view two young girls while in the women's restroom on one occasion. And, as
mentioned, there was testimony that he had been seen touching himself. Lawson's prosecutorial
misconduct claim fails.
Affirmed.
We concur:
