                             THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                      On Appeal from the 194th Judicial District Court
                                   Dallas County, Texas
                    Trial Court Cause Nos. F13-23992-M & F13-23993-M

                             MEMORANDUM OPINION
                           Before Justices Myers, Osborne, and Nowell
                                    Opinion by Justice Nowell
       A jury convicted Victor Amadeo Granados of sexual assault of two children, C.M. and

L.M. The jury sentenced appellant to eleven years’ confinement for assaulting C.M. and twelve

years’ confinement for assaulting L.M. Appellant argues the same issue on appeal of both

judgments: the trial court improperly allowed a witness to testify she did not see signs of coaching

or lying when she interviewed C.M. and L.M. In two cross-issues, the State requests we reform

the judgments to show that sex offender registration requirements apply and to include $10,000

fines. We modify the trial court’s judgments and affirm as modified.

       C.M. and L.M. accused appellant of sexual assault. The record includes testimony about

what occurred. The parties are familiar with that evidence and, in the absence of any challenge to
the sufficiency of the evidence, we limit our discussion of the record to information necessary to

resolve the issues on appeal.

          Nakisha Biglow, formerly a forensic interviewer at the Dallas Children’s Advocacy

Center,1 testified at trial. She described the methods she used as a forensic interviewer with

children who came to DCAC. Biglow separately interviewed C.M. and L.M. at DCAC, and both

girls said they were abused. The State asked Biglow: “And we talk about the red flags that you

look for signs of coaching and lying, was that present in your interview with the girls?” She

answered “No.” Appellant did not object, but, on appeal, complains the trial court erred by

allowing the testimony.

          To preserve a complaint for appellate review, a party must object and state the specific

grounds for the objection. See TEX. R. APP. P. 33.1(a)(1); see also Clark v. State, 365 S.W.3d 333,

339 (Tex. Crim. App. 2012). “Moreover, an objection must be made each time inadmissible

evidence is offered unless the complaining party obtains a running objection or obtains a ruling on

his complaint in a hearing outside the presence of the jury.” Lopez v. State, 253 S.W.3d 680, 684

(Tex. Crim. App. 2008). Because appellant did not object to the testimony about which he

complains on appeal, we conclude he has not preserved any error for appellate review.

          Even if appellant had preserved his complaint for review, we would conclude the trial court

did not err. While an expert’s testimony that a child witness is truthful is inadmissible under Texas

Rule of Evidence 702, an expert’s opinion on signs of coaching or manipulation may assist the

trier of fact and may therefore be admissible. Schutz v. State, 957 S.W.2d 52, 73 (Tex. Crim. App.

1997) (social worker’s testimony that complainant did not exhibit signs of manipulation did not

constitute a direct comment upon the truth of the complainant’s allegations); Munoz v. State, No.

05-16-00153-CR, 2017 WL 1684633, at *3 (Tex. App.—Dallas May 2, 2017, no pet.) (mem. op.,

       At the time of trial, Biglow was the Director of MDT Services for the Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center.

                                                                    –2–
not designated for publication) (trial court did not abuse its discretion by overruling objection to

clinical therapist’s testimony that therapy sessions did not raise any “red flags” she was trained to

look for when determining whether complainant was lying or exaggerating); Rangel v. State, No.

05-15-00609-CR, 2016 WL 3031378, at *2 (Tex. App.—Dallas May 19, 2016, pet. ref’d) (mem.

op., not designated for publication) (forensic interviewer testifying she did not see “red flags” that

complainant had been manipulated or coached was not a direct comment about complainant’s

truthfulness); Vasquez v. State, No. 05–11–01096–CR; 2012 WL 3125171, at *4 (Tex. App.—

Dallas Aug. 2, 2012, pet. ref’d) (mem. op., not designated for publication) (trial court did not abuse

its discretion by overruling appellant’s objection and allowing forensic interviewer to answer

question about whether she observed “red flags”). Based on this Court’s precedent, we conclude

the trial court did not abuse its discretion by allowing an expert witness to testify she did not see

“red flags” indicating coaching and lying when she interviewed C.M. and L.M.

       We overrule appellant’s sole issue.

       In two cross-issues, the State requests we modify the judgments. This Court may modify

the trial court’s judgment to make the record speak the truth when it has the necessary data and

information to do so. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2(b); Bigley v. State, 865 S.W. 2d 26, 27–28 (Tex.

Crim. App. 1993); Asberry v. State, 813 S.W. 2d 526, 529 (Tex. App.—Dallas 1991, pet. ref’d).

       The State initially asks we modify the judgments to show the sex-offender registration

requirements apply. Each judgment shows appellant was convicted of sexual assault of a child

pursuant to section 22.011 of the penal code. See TEX. PENAL CODE § 22.011. An offense under

section 22.011 is a “reportable conviction” under chapter 62 of the Texas Code of Criminal

Procedure, which governs the sex offender registration program. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC.

ANN. art. 62.001(5)(A); see also Hernandez-Jimenez v. State, No. 05-18-00209-CR, 2019 WL

1219368, at *3 (Tex. App.—Dallas Mar. 15, 2019, no pet. h.). A person with a reportable

                                                 –3–
conviction is required to register as a sex offender. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art.

62.051(a); see also Crabtree v. State, 389 S.W.3d 820, 825 (Tex. Crim. App. 2012); Hernandez-

Jimenez, 2019 WL 1219368, at *3. When a person is convicted of an offense for which registration

for a sex offense is required under chapter 62, the judgment must include (1) a statement that the

registration requirements of that chapter apply to the defendant and (2) a statement of the age of

the victim. TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 42.01§ 1(27); see Hernandez-Jimenez, 2019 WL

1219368, at *3.

         The judgments incorrectly state the sex offender registration requirements do not apply to

appellant, and list “N/A” as the ages of the complainants. Because appellant is subject to the sex

offender registration requirements, the judgments are incorrect. We sustain the State’s first cross-

point.

         We modify the trial court judgment in trial court case number F-1323992-M/this Court’s

cause number 05-17-01301-CR to show the sex offender registration requirements apply to

appellant, and the complainant’s age at the time of the offense was fifteen years old. We modify

the trial court judgment in trial court case number F-1323993-M/this Court’s cause number 05-17-

01302-CR to show the sex offender registration requirements apply to appellant, and the

complainant’s age at the time of the offense was fourteen years old.

         In its second cross-issue, the State asks the judgments should be reformed to include a

$10,000 fine in each case. The judgment in cause number 05-17-01301-CR shows the fine

assessed as “Time Served” and “$10,000.” The judgment in cause number 05-17-01302-CR shows

the fine assessed as “N/A.” However, in each case, the jury assessed a fine of $10,000, which the

trial court announced when sentencing appellant. We conclude the judgments are incorrect, and

we sustain the State’s second cross-point. We modify each judgment to show the fine assessed is

$10,000.

                                                –4–
       As modified, we affirm the trial court’s judgments.
