PEREZ-HURTADO
v.
The STATE.
No. A05A1073.
Court of Appeals of Georgia.
August 17, 2005.
*436 Michael A. Corbin, Jerry W. Moncus, for appellant.
Kermit N. McManus, District Attorney, Stephen E. Spencer, Assistant District Attorney, for appellee.
BERNES, Judge.
Appellant, 17-year-old Florentino Perez-Hurtado, was indicted by a Whitfield County grand jury for the offenses of statutory rape and child molestation. Both offenses alleged a single act of intercourse with the victim, 12-year-old C.S. Following a trial by jury, Perez-Hurtado was convicted of statutory rape and acquitted of child molestation. Hurtado contends the verdicts are mutually exclusive and the evidence is therefore insufficient. We disagree and affirm.
The verdicts in this case are not mutually exclusive. "Verdicts are mutually exclusive `where a guilty verdict on one count logically excludes a finding of guilt on the other. (Cits.)' United States v. Powell, 469 U.S. 57, 69 fn. 8, 105 S.Ct. 471, 83 L.Ed.2d 461 (1984)." (Emphasis supplied.) Jackson v. State, 276 Ga. 408, 410(2), 577 S.E.2d 570 (2003). In this case, the jury returned a verdict of guilty on one count and a verdict of not guilty on the other count.
That the jury acquitted appellant of the [child molestation] charge[] does not make the evidence of [statutory rape] any less sufficient; furthermore, even if the acquittal [] [is] inconsistent with the conviction, the inconsistency cannot be used as an avenue to challenge the conviction since the "inconsistent-verdict rule" has been abolished in this State. Milam v. State, 255 Ga. 560(2), 341 S.E.2d 216 (1986). Cf. Dumas v. State, 266 Ga. 797(2), 471 S.E.2d 508 (1996). Metts v. State, 270 Ga. 481, 483(2), 511 S.E.2d 508 (1999).
Kolokouris v. State, 271 Ga. 597, 598(2), 523 S.E.2d 311 (1999).
"A person commits the offense of statutory rape when he or she engages in sexual intercourse with any person under the age of 16 years[,] not his or her spouse. . . ." OCGA § 16-6-3(a). Perez-Hurtado testified at trial and admitted that he had sexual intercourse with the victim and that she was not his wife. Perez-Hurtado's in judicio admissions were conclusive evidence of his guilt. See Thomas v. State, 198 Ga.App. 333, 334, 401 S.E.2d 345 (1991). Furthermore, the unrebutted evidence established that the victim was 12 years old at the time of the incident. Thus, we conclude any rational trier of fact could have found Perez-Hurtado guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of statutory rape. OCGA § 16-6-3; Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 99 S.Ct. 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979).
Judgment affirmed.
