CASE: Mitchell Weston (Case #21FE015510)
PROSECUTOR: Deputy District Attorney Dinah Mielke, Special Assault & Child Abuse Unit
The Honorable Carlton Davis sentenced Mitchell Weston to 248 years to life in prison. On December 18, 2025, a jury convicted Weston of 16 counts of lewd act upon a child, nine counts of oral copulation/sexual penetration with a child under 10 years old and three counts of sexual intercourse or sodomy of child under 10 years old.
Mitchell Weston sexually assaulted two girls over a period of two years. Weston preyed on their vulnerability. Both victims disclosed the abuse which included molestation, oral copulation, digital penetration and sexual intercourse.
Under current California law, Weston (age 36) will become eligible for release at an Elder Parole hearing once he turns 50 years old and has served 20 years of his 248-years to life prison sentence. With his in-custody credits, that will be in approximately 16½ years. Additional material on Elder Parole can be found here:
