Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Jul 25, 2018
STATE OF MISSOURI, Plaintiff-Respondent, vs. NATHAN CALISTRO FALIG, JR., Defendant-Appellant.
Nathan Calistro Falig, Jr. was found guilty by the trial court of multiple offenses, including deviate sexual intercourse and sexual contact, arising from a sexual assault. He appealed, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence to prove that his actions were for the purpose of arousing his sexual desire. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's judgment, finding that the evidence, including the defendant's statement that the victim's pain was turning him on, was sufficient to support the convictions.
