INTRODUCTION Appellant Kevin Duran Glenn was convicted by jury of four felony counts of annoying or molesting a minor child (Pen. Code, § 647.6, subd. (c)(2)). In addition, enhancement allegations were found true for two prior sex offense convictions (Pen. Code, §§ 288, subd. (c)(1), 289, subd. (a)) and a prior strike conviction (Pen. Code, § 667, subds.

A few days later, on April 11th, A.N., and her friend K., saw appellant as they were walking from her school to the bus stop around 2:00 p.m. From his vehicle,
