Washington V. Hayes

COX, J. -- At issue in this case is the sufficiency of generic testimony to support the conviction of Ralph Hayes for raping his young daughter, K. The State charged Hayes with four counts of rape of a child during the period "on or about" July 1, 1990 through May 31, 1992. K. testified at trial that Hayes "put his private part in mine" some "two or three times a week" during the charging period. The State presented other evidence that was consistent with the charges. A jury convicted Hayes on all four counts. He appeals.
