¶1 — The primary issue that we decide here is what act or course of conduct the legislature has defined as punishable for identify theft — the “unit of prosecution.”1 We also decide whether the trial court properly exercised its discretion when it concluded that convictions for two separate counts of bail jumping constituted the same criminal conduct. Finally, we address another sentencing issue regarding the community placement status of Jeffrey L. Fisher.
Cox, J.*581¶2 Here, the “unit of prosecution” is Fisher’s possession, with the requisite intent, of a means of identification or financial information of each victim. Furthermore, Fisher’s two separate acts of bail jumping, separated by four months, do not constitute the same criminal conduct for purposes of sentencing. Finally, the determination whether Fisher was on community placement at the relevant time was properly determined by the sentencing judge.2 We reverse the sentence and remand for resentencing.
¶3 In March 2003, Fisher was arrested and charged with possession of methamphetamine. Fisher posted bail and was later charged with two additional counts of bail jumping when he failed to appear on two different occasions. A jury convicted Fisher of all three charges.
¶4 In May 2003, Fisher was arrested for driving with a suspended license. A search incident to arrest revealed multiple pieces of identification, checks, and account numbers, belonging to several different people, in his possession. The State charged Fisher with one count of second degree identity theft of Josiah Erickson and one count of second degree identity theft of Ryan Dubois for possession of each victim’s means of identification or financial information.3
*582¶5 Additional charges against Fisher included numerous counts of possessing stolen property in the first and second degree and forgery. Fisher pleaded guilty to the two counts of second degree identity theft in exchange for the State dropping the remaining six counts.
¶6 The plea agreement reflected the State’s calculation that Fisher’s offender score was seven. At Fisher’s sentencing hearing, he successfully argued that the “unit of prosecution” for identity theft is “use,” not “possession.” The trial court counted the two identity theft convictions as one for purposes of scoring.4 The trial court also ruled that Fisher’s two bail jumping convictions constituted the same criminal conduct. Finally, the court added one point to Fisher’s offender score based on Fisher’s stipulation that he was on community placement at the time of his crimes.
¶7 The State appeals the judgment and sentence scoring the two identity thefts as one point and the two bail jumping convictions as one point. Fisher cross-appeals the one point added for community placement.
UNIT OF PROSECUTION — IDENTITY THEFT
¶8 The State argues that the “unit of prosecution” for identity theft in this case is Fisher’s possession, with the requisite intent, of a victim’s means of identification or financial information. We agree.
¶9 “When a defendant is convicted of multiple violations of the same statute, the double jeopardy analysis focuses on what the legislature intends as the ‘unit of prosecution [.]’ . . . .”5 In order to determine the “unit of prosecution,” the first step is to look at the statute.6 The *583plain meaning of the words of the statute determines its construction.7 Only if the statute is ambiguous do we resort to aids of construction, such as legislative history.8 If the legislature has failed to indicate the “unit of prosecution” in a criminal statute, the statute is ambiguous and the rule of lenity applies.9 Statutory construction is reviewed de novo.10
¶10 Former RCW 9.35.020 (2002), the identity theft statute, stated in relevant part:
(1) No person may knowingly obtain, possess, use, or transfer a means of identification or financial information of another person, living or dead, with the intent to commit, or to aid or abet, any crime.
(2)(a) Violation of this section when the accused or an accomplice uses the victim’s means of identification or financial information and obtains an aggregate total of credit, money, goods, services, or anything else of value in excess of one thousand five hundred dollars in value shall constitute identity theft in the first degree. Identity theft in the first degree is a class B felony.
(b) Violation of this section when the accused or an accomplice uses the victim’s means of identification or financial information and obtains an aggregate total of credit, money, goods, services, or anything else of value that is less than one thousand five hundred dollars in value, or when no credit, money, goods, services, or anything of value is obtained shall constitute identity theft in the second degree. Identity theft in the second degree is a class C felony. [11]
¶11 Subsection (1) of the above statute defines the punishable acts that the legislature has prohibited. The plain words of that subsection include possession of either a *584means of identification or financial information of another person, with the requisite intent, as one of several punishable acts. The other prohibited acts include obtaining, using, or transferring, with the requisite intent, either a means of identification or financial information of another.
¶12 Subsections (2)(a) and (b) define the degrees of identity theft, respectively, as either in the first or second degree. But neither of these two subsections modifies the plain meaning of subsection (1), which defines the prohibited acts. Thus, under the facts of this case, the “unit of prosecution” is Fisher’s possession, with the requisite intent, of a means of identification or financial information of each victim.12
¶13 Fisher argues that under State v. Leyda13 and the identity theft statute, the “unit of prosecution” is “use,” not “possession.” Our state supreme court held that the unit of prosecution for identity theft “is any one act of either knowingly ‘obtain [ing], possess [ing], us [ing], or transfer[ring] a means of identification or financial information of another person . . . with the intent to commit, or to aid or abet, any crime.’ ”14 The court noted that identity theft is a crime committed against each person whose identity has been stolen.15 It further noted that had Leyda obtained, used, possessed, or transferred the stolen credit cards of two or more persons, he could have been properly charged *585with multiple counts of identity theft.16 Because Leyda “obtained” the financial information of a single victim, the court reversed three of the four counts of second degree identity theft for violation of double jeopardy.17
¶14 Here, Fisher possessed the financial information of several different victims. Thus, he was properly charged with and convicted of two counts of second degree identity theft for possessing the financial information of two different victims. The trial court’s conclusion that “use,” rather than “possession,” is the proper unit of prosecution resulted in its erroneous scoring of Fisher’s two identity theft convictions as one point rather than two. Proper scoring requires the two convictions to be scored separately at resentencing following remand.
¶15 Fisher further asserts that if this court does not agree that “use” is the only “unit of prosecution,” then the rule of lenity applies. We reject this assertion.
¶16 The rule of lenity applies where a statute is ambiguous, and any ambiguity must be resolved in the criminal defendant’s favor.18 Former RCW 9.35.020 is not ambiguous.19 The words of the statute are quite clear in defining the prohibited act of possession of the specified items with the requisite intent. Therefore, the rule of lenity does not apply.
SAME CRIMINAL CONDUCT
¶17 The State argues that Fisher’s two bail jumping convictions did not arise out of the same criminal conduct because the crimes occurred at different times. We agree.
¶18 If two current offenses encompass the same criminal conduct, then those current offenses will *586count as only one point in calculating the offender’s score.20 The “same criminal conduct” requires two or more crimes to involve (1) the same criminal intent, (2) the same time and place, and (3) the same victim.21 “If any one of these elements is missing, the offenses must be individually counted toward the offender score.”22 A sentencing court’s determination of same criminal conduct will be reversed only for a clear abuse of discretion or misapplication of law.23
¶19 We need address only the second prong of the test because it is dispositive. The question is whether the two bail jumping crimes occurred at different times.
¶20 It is undisputed that Fisher was out of jail on bond when he failed to appear in June 2003. He also failed to appear in October 2003. Ajury convicted him of two counts of bail jumping based on these failures to appear.
¶21 The two failures to appear, separated by almost four months, did not occur at the “same time.” The trial court appears to have based its ruling on the fact that “the defendant failed to appear for two related close-in-time proceedings and in the same case governed by the same bond.” Neither the same cause number of a case nor the same bond are relevant considerations for purposes of the controlling test. And the substantial time difference simply does not meet the test.
¶22 Fisher relies on State v. Porter24 to argue that the offenses do not need to be simultaneous and the trial court was within its discretion in determining that the bail jumping offenses arose out of the same criminal conduct. That case is distinguishable.
*587¶23 In Porter, the court held that two drug sales that occurred 10 minutes apart satisfied the “same time” element of same criminal conduct.25 In doing so, the court rejected a “simultaneity requirement” with regard to a finding of “same time” for purposes of the governing test. A time difference of 10 minutes is vastly different from one of four months. Thus, Porter is of no help to Fisher in this case.
¶24 The trial court incorrectly ruled that the two bail jumping convictions were the same criminal conduct.
¶25 We reverse the sentence and remand for resentencing.
¶26 The remaining issues of this opinion are not of precedential importance. Accordingly, pursuant to RCW 2.06.040, the remainder of this opinion is unpublished.

We withdraw the prior opinion in this case in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in State v. Jones and file this substitute opinion.
First and second degree identity theft defined by former ROW 9.35.020 (2002) states in relevant part:
(2)(a) Violation of this section when the accused or an accomplice uses the victim’s means of identification or financial information and obtains an aggregate total of credit, money, goods, services, or anything else of value in excess of one thousand five hundred dollars in value shall constitute identity theft in the first degree. Identity theft in the first degree is a class B felony.
(b) Violation of this section when the accused or an accomplice uses the victim’s means of identification or financial information and obtains an aggregate total of credit, money, goods, services, or anything else of value that is less than one thousand five hundred dollars in value, or when no credit, money, goods, services, or anything of value is obtained shall constitute identity theft in the second degree. Identity theft in the second degree is a class C felony.
(Emphasis added.)
The trial court reduced Fisher’s offender score from six to five, apparently omitting the additional community placement point. The trial court further reduced Fisher’s offender score from five to four after finding the two bail jumping convictions constituted the same criminal conduct.
