v.

AR.J.,

Defendant and Appellant;

A.J. et al.,

Respondents.

Appellant Ar.J., father of the minors A.J. and An.J., appeals from the juvenile court’s jurisdictional and dispositional orders. (Welf. & Inst. Code, §§ 360, subd. (d),

1

395.)1 He contends the juvenile court improperly denied reunification services based on a flawed finding of severe sexual abuse. Ample evidence of severe sexual abuse was presented at the jurisdictional hearing and the juvenile court correctly relied on this evidence in making its dispositional findings and orders. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment. BACKGROUND The Initial Complaint and Investigation The San Joaquin County Human Services Agency (Agency) filed a dependency petition alleging failure to protect and sexual abuse (§ 300, subds. (b), (d)) in July 2011 after 16-year-old A.J. reported to her paternal aunt that father had sexually abused her since she was nine. The minors were placed in the paternal aunt’s care. Father was a Penal Code section 290 sex offender registrant, having been previously convicted of molesting A.J.’s mother, K.J., when father was 25 and K.J. was 13. A.J. told investigators father put his penis inside her only a little so she would remain a virgin. She said his penis would be inside her “probably about an hour.” He also taught her how to perform oral sex on him. Father had threatened to kill her if she told anyone and put a knife to her throat numerous times. Father also used a purple vibrator on her private parts, and videotaped her masturbating many times. He would put her on a black table with stirrups where she would masturbate while he videotaped. According to A.J., father had a tattoo on his penis of a white eyeball but the ink had faded. He also molested her mother, K.J., when K.J. was 13 and A.J.’s friend, Crystal. A.J. did not think father molested An.J.
