Description
Angel Valdez appeals from his involuntary commitment as a mentally disordered offender (MDO) under Penal Code section 2960 et. seq. He contends the evidence was insufficient to prove three of the five criteria required for an MDO commitment because (1) his underlying conviction of sexual battery under section 243.4 did not involve force or violence and did not otherwise qualify as an MDO offense; (2) his mental illness was not an aggravating factor in that underlying offense; and (3) he did not present a substantial danger of physical harm to others. We reject these claims and affirm the judgment.
