IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON
DIVISON ONE
STATE OF WASHINGTON, No. 81762-1-I
Respondent, DIVISION ONE
v.
UNPUBLISHED OPINION
MARIAH JOLEENE BOUDRIEAU,
Appellant.
COBURN, J. — Mariah Boudrieau and two other people were involved in a
planned robbery that ended with the victim shot and paralyzed. She appeals her
convictions of robbery in the first degree and assault in the first degree
contending that the State failed to prove that she, personally, satisfied each of
the elements of the crimes. The jury instructions allowed the State to prove and
the jury to convict Boudrieau as an accomplice. We also reject her contention
that the information charging robbery in the first degree was deficient. While we
affirm her convictions, we remand for resentencing to correct her offender score
under State v. Blake1, to correct the judgment and sentence by noting that the
same criminal conduct supported both convictions, and to strike her community
custody supervision fees.
1In State v. Blake, 197 Wn.2d 170, 481 P.3d 521 (2021), our Supreme
Court held Washington’s simple drug possession statute (RCW 69.50.4013) is
unconstitutional.

FACTS
Mariah Boudrieau asked her friend, Dennis Peltier, for help with a “lick,”
which Peltier understood to mean that she wanted his help in “some sort of plan
to get drugs.” Peltier eventually agreed to go along with her plan. Boudrieau
texted Peltier, “What’s your address? Strap’s on the way, so we can do this lick.”
Peltier testified at trial that he understood “Strap” as a nickname for a person,
and that the term “strapped” usually means someone has a gun.
Peltier understood the plan was for Boudrieau to lure Darrick Caudill to
Peltier’s house under the pretense of selling heroin to Peltier. Peltier did not
actually have any money to buy heroin at that time, and Peltier knew Boudrieau
also did not have money to pay for the heroin. Peltier testified that he did not
know “Strap” would have a gun, but he did know he would be the “muscle,” and
that he and Boudrieau were somehow “just going to take it” from Caudill.
Boudrieau referred to Caudill as a “Jake,” meaning he was an easy target. When
Boudrieau got to Peltier’s house, she called Caudill and said Peltier wanted an
ounce of heroin. Caudill expected a $1,200 payment.
When Caudill entered the house, he pulled out the heroin and put it on a
scale. Peltier asked if he could sample it. When Peltier went to sample a piece
of the heroin, Caudill asked if he could see the money first. Peltier proceeded
into the kitchen and started going through the cupboards, pretending to look for
the money. Boudrieau remained seated on the couch.
Caudill noticed someone entering the house gun-first through the door.
Caudill initially froze, but he then threw his body into the back of the door
2
No. 81762-1-I
smashing the gunman’s arm in between the door and the door jamb. Boudrieau
then got up off the couch and came at Caudill “with her hands out like claws,”
grabbing him. Boudrieau did not seem surprised to see a third person there. As
Boudrieau and Caudill grappled for about 10 to 15 seconds, the gunman shot
Caudill in the back. The gunman’s head was covered by a bandana and t-shirt
wrapped around it.
After Caudill was shot and lying on the ground, Boudrieau started going
through his pockets, taking his money and phone. Caudill asked Boudrieau to
call an ambulance because he thought he was dying, but Caudill testified that
Boudrieau responded, “I don’t give a fuck,” and continued to rob him. Peltier
heard Boudrieau ask Caudill where the rest of the drugs were. Boudrieau gave
Peltier a piece of the heroin on her way out the door. When the gunman
declared he was leaving, Boudrieau responded that she was going with him.
Caudill then testified that either the gunman or Boudrieau picked up the heroin
and left. Caudill could not move his legs or stand up because he was paralyzed
from the chest down.
The State charged Boudrieau with assault in the first degree and robbery
in the first degree under the theory of accomplice liability. A jury convicted her on
both counts. Additional facts are provided where relevant below.
DISCUSSION
Sufficiency of the Evidence
Boudrieau first contends that the evidence was insufficient to support the
convictions because the State was required to prove that she personally satisfied
3
No. 81762-1-I
all the elements of the crimes based on the to-convict jury instructions. We
disagree.
“A sufficiency challenge admits the truth of the State’s evidence and
accepts the reasonable inferences to be made from it.” State v. O’Neal, 159
Wn.2d 500, 505, 150 P.3d 1121 (2007). We will reverse a conviction “only where
no rational trier of fact could find that all elements of the crime were proved
beyond a reasonable doubt.” State v. Smith, 155 Wn.2d 496, 501, 120 P.3d 559
(2005). Further, “[a] reviewing court will reverse a conviction for insufficient
evidence only if no rational trier of fact could find that the State met its burden.”
State v. Teal, 152 Wn.2d 333, 337, 96 P.3d 974 (2004).
Central to Boudrieau’s argument are the to-convict instructions for both
counts. The court instructed the jury that to convict Boudrieau of assault in the
first degree, each of the following elements must be proved beyond a reasonable
doubt:
(1) That on or about the [sic] February 6th, 2019, the Defendant, or
Co-Defendant, assaulted Darrick Caudill;
(2) That the assault was committed with a firearm;
(3) That the Defendant acted with intent to inflict great bodily harm;
and
(4) That this act occurred in the State of Washington.
(Emphasis added.) Although other people were involved in the crimes,
Boudrieau was tried alone. There was no co-defendant at trial.
Further, the court instructed the jury that to convict Boudrieau of robbery in
the first degree, each of the following elements must be proved beyond a
reasonable doubt:
4
No. 81762-1-I
(1) That on or about the [sic] February 6th, 2019, the defendant,
unlawfully took personal property from the person or in the presence
of another;
(2) That the defendant intended to commit theft of the property;
(3) That the taking was against the person’s will by the defendant’s
use or threatened use of immediate force, violence, or fear of injury
to that person;
(4) That the force or fear was used by the defendant to obtain or
retain possession of the property or to prevent or overcome
resistance to the taking;
(5) That in the commission of these acts or in the immediate flight
therefrom the defendant inflicted bodily injury; and
(6) That any of these acts occurred in the State of Washington.
(Emphasis added.)
Boudrieau argues that including “Co-Defendant” in only one element of the
to-convict instruction for assault left the State with the burden to prove that
Boudrieau, through her own conduct, personally acted with intent to inflict great
bodily harm under the assault charge, and that Boudrieau personally inflicted
bodily injury under the robbery charge. Thus, because the State did not prove
Boudrieau personally intended to inflict great bodily harm or caused bodily injury,
her convictions must be reversed. We disagree.
To support her argument, Boudrieau relies on the “law of the case”
doctrine but ignores Teal. 152 Wn.2d at 339. Washington’s “law of the case”
doctrine requires the State to prove every element in the to-convict instruction
beyond a reasonable doubt. State v. Johnson, 188 Wn.2d 742, 762, 399 P.3d
507 (2017). Our Supreme Court in Teal discussed to-convict instructions in the
context of accomplice liability.
5
No. 81762-1-I
In Teal, the defendant argued that the State did not prove the elements of
robbery because the to-convict instruction referred only to “acts of the ‘defendant’
and not to the acts of the ‘defendant or an accomplice,’” and the State did not
provide evidence that the defendant was the principal in the robbery. 152 Wn.2d
at 336. Our Supreme Court distinguished “law of the case” circumstances where
the to-convict instruction actually added an element to the charge. Id. at 337-38
(discussing the added venue element in State v. Hickman, 135 Wn.2d 97, 954
P.2d 900 (1998)). It explained that accomplice liability is not an element of the
crime charged. Id. at 338. It further stated that the rule requiring that all
elements of a crime be listed in a single instruction is not violated when
accomplice liability is described in a separate instruction. Id. at 339. That court
held that a to-convict instruction omitting the phrase “defendant or an
accomplice” was sufficient when read in conjunction with an accomplice liability
instruction. Id.
Jury instructions are sufficient when, read as a whole, they permit the
parties to argue their theories of the case, do not mislead the jury, and properly
inform the jury of the applicable law. State v. Barnes, 153 Wn.2d 378, 382, 103
P.3d 1219 (2005); Teal, 152 Wn.2d at 339.
In the instant case, the trial court also instructed the jury on accomplice
liability for both charges. Instruction 11 stated:
A person is guilty of a crime if it is committed by the conduct
of another person for which he or she is legally accountable. A
person is legally accountable for the conduct of another person
when she is an accomplice of such other person in the commission
of the crime.
6
No. 81762-1-I
A person is an accomplice in the commission of assault, if,
with knowledge that it will promote or facilitate the commission of
the crime, she either:
(1) solicits, commands, encourages, or requests another
person to commit the crime; or
(2) aids or agrees to aid another person in planning or
committing the crime.
The word “aid” means all assistance whether given by
words, acts, encouragement, support, or presence. A person who
is present at the scene and ready to assist by his or her presence is
aiding in the commission of the crime. However, more than mere
presence and knowledge of the criminal activity of another must be
shown to establish that a person present is an accomplice.
A person who is an accomplice in the commission of a crime
is guilty of that crime whether present at the scene or not.
Instruction 21 similarly instructed on accomplice liability, but for the crime of
robbery.
The to-convict instruction for assault in the first degree may have
mistakenly referred to a “Co-Defendant” when it was obvious to everyone the trial
involved a single defendant. However, read as a whole, the instructions still
permitted the jury to consider whether the defendant was guilty as a principal or
an accomplice as the jury did in Teal. Moreover, the instructions accurately
stated the law, did not mislead the jury, and permitted each party to argue its
theory of the case. Additionally, the jurors were instructed to consider all of the
instructions: “The order of these instructions has no significance as to their
relative importance. They are all important.”
Boudrieau does not otherwise maintain that the evidence was insufficient
beyond her arguments that she did not personally act with intent to inflict great
bodily harm, and that she did not personally inflict bodily injury. A rational trier of
7
No. 81762-1-I
fact could find that the State met its burden proving Boudrieau guilty of assault in
the first degree and robbery in the first degree as an accomplice.
Split Elements
Boudrieau next contends that the State failed to prove she was guilty of
robbery in the first degree as an accomplice because it did not prove another
person’s conduct satisfied all elements of the offense, which is required under
RCW 9A.08.020. We disagree.
Our Supreme Court and this court have held that juries can split elements
between multiple participants, or accomplices, in criminal cases. State v.
Dreewes, 192 Wn.2d 812, 824, 432 P.3d 795 (2019) (holding that, in an assault
in the second degree case, all the State needed to prove for accomplice liability
to attach is that a co-participant assaulted the victim with a deadly weapon and
that Dreewes solicited and aided in the assault); State v. Walker, 182 Wn.2d 463,
484, 341 P.3d 976 (2015) (holding that Walker’s conviction for premeditated
murder could be based on a finding that he or an accomplice acted with
premeditated intent to cause the victim’s death); State v. Hoffman, 116 Wn.2d
51, 105, 804 P.2d 577 (1991) (concluding the jury did not need to decide who
actually shot and killed a police officer so long as both participated in the crime);
State v. Haack, 88 Wn. App. 423, 427, 958 P.2d 1001 (1997) (recognizing that a
jury may convict a defendant of the crime of assault in the first degree based on
splitting the elements between the defendant and another under accomplice
liability).
8
No. 81762-1-I
Boudrieau invites us to disregard this line of cases because their holdings
trace back to State v. Carothers, 84 Wn.2d 256, 525 P.2d 731 (1974), which was
decided under the former accomplice liability statute, former RCW 9.01.030
(1974).2 See Dreewes, 192 Wn.2d at 824 (quoting Walker, 182 Wn.2d at 483
(citing Haack, 88 Wn. App. at 429); Hoffman, 116 Wn.2d at 104 (citing Carothers,
84 Wn.2d at 264)). Boudrieau contends former RCW 9.01.030 (1974) reached
“[e]very person concerned in the commission of a felony,” whereas the current
accomplice liability statute, RCW 9A.08.020(1), provides liability “only for ‘the
conduct of another person.’” Boudrieau contends the plain text and legislative
history of RCW 9A.08.0203 make clear that a person may be liable as an
accomplice only if another person committed the offense.
2 Former RCW 9.01.030 (1974) provided:
Every person concerned in the commission of a felony, gross
misdemeanor, or misdemeanor, whether he directly commits the
act constituting the offense, or aids or abets in its commission, and
whether present or absent; and every person who directly or
indirectly counsels, encourages, hires, commands, induces or
otherwise procures another to commit a felony, gross
misdemeanor, or misdemeanor, is a principal, and shall be
proceeded against and punished as such. The fact that the person
aided, abetted, counseled, encouraged, hired, commanded,
induced or procured, could not or did not entertain criminal intent,
shall not be a defense to any person aiding, abetting, counseling,
encouraging, hiring, commanding, inducing, or procuring him.
3 The current statute provides in relevant part, that “[a] person is guilty of a
crime if it is committed by the conduct of another person for which he or she is
legally accountable,” and that “[a] person is legally accountable for the conduct of
another person when . . . [h]e or she is an accomplice of such other person in the
commission of a crime.” RCW 9A.08.020(1),(2)(c). The statute then explains
that
“[a] person is an accomplice of another person in the commission of
a crime if:
9
No. 81762-1-I
We reject Boudrieau’s invitation to conduct a statutory construction
analysis. Hoffman, Walker, and Dreewes have already applied the current
accomplice liability statute, RCW 9A.08.020. Decisions of the Supreme Court
are binding on lower courts. State v. Brown, 13 Wn. App. 2d 288, 291, 466 P.3d
244 (2020). The fact that our Supreme Court continues to apply the same
principles from older cases indicates that those principles are still applicable
under the current statute.
“‘Accomplice liability represents a legislative decision that one who
participates in a crime is guilty as a principal, regardless of the degree of the
participation.’” Dreewes, 192 Wn.2d at 824 (quoting Hoffman, 116 Wn.2d at
104). We presume the legislature is “‘familiar with judicial interpretations of
statutes and, absent an indication it intended to overrule a particular
interpretation, amendments are presumed to be consistent with previous judicial
decisions.’” State v. Ervin, 169 Wn.2d 815, 825, 239 P.3d 354 (2010) (quoting
State v. Bobic, 140 Wn.2d 250, 264, 996 P.2d 610 (2000)).
In the instant case, Boudrieau contends she cannot be liable as an
accomplice to robbery because the State failed to prove the gunman took
property from or in the presence of Caudill. Under RCW 9A.08.020 and the
(a) With knowledge that it will promote or facilitate the commission
of the crime, he or she:
(i) Solicits, commands, encourages, or requests such other person
to commit it; or
(ii) Aids or agrees to aid such other person in planning or
committing it.”
RCW 9A.08.020(3).
10
No. 81762-1-I
authority set out in Hoffman, Walker, and Dreewes, the State needed only to
prove a co-participant shot Caudill and that Boudrieau solicited and aided in the
robbery. “[T]he accomplice liability statute predicates criminal liability on general
knowledge of the crime and not on specific knowledge of the elements of the
participant’s crime.” Dreewes, 192 Wn.2d at 824 (alteration in original) (quoting
Hoffman, 116 Wn.2d at 104). The jury could have found that Boudrieau planned
to rob Caudill with the help of the gunman. When Caudill tried to stop the
gunman from entering, Boudrieau jumped to the gunman’s aid by attacking
Caudill. This allowed the gunman to shoot Caudill, rendering him helpless and
allowing Boudrieau to take Caudill’s money, phone and heroin. The State was
not required to prove the gunman took the heroin in order for the jury to convict
Boudrieau of robbery in the first degree.
Information
Boudrieau next contends, for the first time on appeal, that the information
failed to contain all the essential elements for the crime of robbery in the first
degree. We disagree.
Boudrieau has a constitutional right to be informed of each criminal charge
alleged so that she is able to adequately prepare and mount a defense for trial.
U.S. CONST. amend. VI; W ASH. CONST. art. I, § 22 (amend. 10). The State must
provide an information that sets forth every material element of each charge
made, along with essential supporting facts. State v. McCarty, 140 Wn.2d 420,
425, 998 P.2d 296 (2000). An essential element is “one whose specification is
necessary to establish the very illegality of the behavior” charged. State v.
11
No. 81762-1-I
Johnson, 119 Wn.2d 143, 147, 829 P.2d 1078 (1992). The information does not
need to include definitions of elements. State v. Johnson, 180 Wn.2d 295, 302,
325 P.3d 135 (2014).
When a defendant challenges the sufficiency of the charging document
prior to a verdict, the charging language must be strictly construed. State v.
Taylor, 140 Wn.2d 237, 237, 996 P.2d 571 (2000). However, if the defendant
challenges the sufficiency of the charging document following a verdict, then the
charging language must be construed liberally in favor of validity. Id.
Because a challenge to the sufficiency of a charging document involves a
question of constitutional due process, Boudrieau can raise it for the first time on
appeal. State v. Kjorsvik, 117 Wn.2d 93, 102, 812 P.2d 86 (1991). When an
appellant raises such a challenge, the proper standard of review is the two-
pronged test. First, the court asks whether the necessary elements appear in
any form, or by fair construction can they be found, in the information. Second, if
so, the court asks if the defendant can show he or she was actually prejudiced by
the inartful language that caused the lack of notice. McCarty, 140 Wn.2d at 425.
The first prong of this test is satisfied when a charging document sets forth
all of the essential elements of the crime charged. Id. If the required elements
are set forth, even if only in vague terms, then the charging document also
satisfies the second prong of the test if the terms used did not result in any actual
prejudice to the defendant. Id.
In the instant case, the State charged Boudrieau with robbery in the first
degree and alleged in the information that she “did unlawfully take personal
12
No. 81762-1-I
property of another, to wit: drugs and/or US Currency, from the person or in the
presence of” Caudill “against such person’s will, by use or threatened use of
immediate force, violence, and fear of injury” to Caudill.
The statutory definition of robbery is as follows:
A person commits robbery when he or she unlawfully takes
personal property from the person of another or in his or her
presence against his or her will by the use or threatened use of
immediate force, violence, or fear of injury to that person or his or
her property or the person or property of anyone. Such force or
fear must be used to obtain or retain possession of the property, or
to prevent or overcome resistance to the taking; in either of which
cases the degree of force is immaterial. Such taking constitutes
robbery whenever it appears that, although the taking was fully
completed without the knowledge of the person from whom taken,
such knowledge was prevented by the use of force or fear.
RCW 9A.56.190 (emphasis added). Boudrieau contends the second sentence of
the statute defining robbery is an essential element that was missing in the
information.
We have twice considered and rejected this premise. See State v. Derri,
17 Wn. App. 2d 376, 391, 486 P.3d 901, review granted in part, 198 Wn.2d 1017,
497 P.3d 389 (2021);4 State v. Phillips, 9 Wn. App. 2d 368, 377, 444 P.3d 51,
review denied, 194 Wn.2d 1007 (2019). We have held that the first sentence of
RCW 9A.56.190 contains the statutory elements of robbery whereas the second
sentence merely defines certain terms contained in that first sentence:
The first sentence, which sets forth the statutory elements of
robbery, includes the element of “the use or threatened use of
immediate force, violence, or fear of injury.” The second sentence
defines “force” and “fear” as used in sentence one. “Such force or
4
We note that our Supreme Court has granted petition for review on
“whether the charging document was deficient.” State v. Derri, 198 Wn.2d 1017,
497 P.3d 389 (2021).
13
No. 81762-1-I
fear must be used to obtain or retain possession of the property, or
to prevent or overcome resistance to the taking; in either of which
cases the degree of force is immaterial.” (Emphasis added.) It also
defines to “obtain” or “retain” as a form of “take,” as used in
sentence one.
Phillips, 9 Wn. App. 2d at 377 (quoting RCW 9A.56.190).
In support of her claim, Boudrieau relies on State v. Pry, 194 Wn.2d 745,
751, 452 P.3d 536 (2019) and State v. Johnson, 155 Wn.2d 609, 610–11, 121
P.3d 91 (2005). This is not a new argument we have not previously considered.
Our Supreme Court in Pry examined whether RCW 9A.76.050, entitled
“Rendering criminal assistance—Definition of term,” either provided the essential
elements of the offense or merely defined those elements. 194 Wn.2d at 755-56.
The court concluded that the contents of that statutory provision were not merely
definitional but rather set forth the essential elements of the offense of rendering
criminal assistance. Id. at 763. Likewise, in Phillips, we held that the first
sentence of RCW 9A.56.190, which is entitled “Robbery—Definition,” contained
the statutory elements of robbery. 9 Wn. App. 2d at 377. “[T]he Pry decision
expressly acknowledged the principle that ‘[a] charging document is not required
to define essential elements.’” Derri, 17 Wn. App. 2d at 389 (second alteration in
original) (quoting Pry, 194 Wn.2d at 752).
The issue in Johnson was ‘whether a robbery conviction can be
based upon force used to escape after peaceably-taken property
has been abandoned.’ The court held that a robbery conviction
could not be so based because Washington law incorporates the
‘transactional’ view of the crime of robbery, meaning ‘the force must
be used to obtain or retain property, or to prevent or overcome
resistance to the taking.’
14
No. 81762-1-I
Derri, 17 Wn. App. 2d at 390 (citation omitted) (quoting Johnson, 155 Wn.2d at
609-10). “In Phillips, we explained that the Johnson ‘decision makes clear the
relationship between the first and second sentences of RCW 9A.56.190.’
Whereas the first sentence provides the essential elements of robbery, the
second sentence defines certain terms contained within the first sentence to
explain Washington’s ‘transactional’ view of robbery.” Derri, 17 Wn. App. 2d at
390 (citation omitted) (quoting Phillips, 9 Wn. App. 2d at 377).5
We continue to adhere to our decisions in Derri and Phillips, and hold that
the information contained all the essential elements for the crime of robbery in
the first degree.6
Legal Financial Obligations
Boudrieau further contends that the trial court only intended to impose
mandatory legal financial obligations (LFOs) despite the boilerplate language in
5 We previously have acknowledged that Division Three takes a contrary
position in State v. Todd, 200 Wn. App. 879, 403 P.3d 867 (2017) (holding that
the statutory elements of robbery include the second sentence of RCW
9A.56.190). In Derri, we explained why we disagree with Todd. Derri, 17 Wn.
App. 2d at 390. The Todd court cited State v. Allen, 159 Wn.2d 1, 147 P.3d 581
(2006), which did not announce a new statutory element of robbery but was
describing the State’s burden of proof in determining whether sufficient evidence
supported the conviction. Derri, 17 Wn. App. 2d at 390.
6 At oral argument, the State additionally argued that even if the second
sentence in RCW 9A.56.190 were to be considered an essential element, the
information is still not deficient “using the liberal construction test.” Wash. Court
of Appeals oral argument, State v. Boudrieau, No. 81762-1-I (Mar. 4, 2022), at 11
min., 17 sec., video recording by TVW, Washington State’s Public Affairs
Network, https://tvw.org/watch/?eventID=2022031063. As the State’s brief did
not address this argument beyond stating the information shall be liberally
construed when defendant raises the issue for the first time on appeal, we
decline to address it. See RAP 10.3.
15
No. 81762-1-I
the judgment and sentence that ordered community custody supervision fees.
We agree.
Supervision fees as a condition of community custody are a discretionary
legal financial obligation because they “are waivable by the trial court.” State v.
Dillon, 12 Wn. App. 2d 133, 152, 456 P.3d 1199 (2020). Where the trial court
indicated it intended to impose only mandatory LFOs and the record suggests
the supervision fees were inadvertently imposed, it is proper to order the fee be
stricken from the judgment and sentence. Id. See State v. Bowman, 198 Wn.2d
609, 629, 498 P.3d 478 (2021) (holding that the trial court committed procedural
error by imposing a discretionary fee where it had otherwise agreed to waive
such fees).
At sentencing, Boudrieau’s counsel asked the court “to make a finding of
indigency and only impose the mandatory court fees and fines in this case. . .”
However, the State asked the court to impose the $500 victim penalty
assessment in addition to the $200 filing fee, which may be waived. The court
agreed with the defense, stating, “I will find that [Boudrieau] is indigent for the
purposes of legal–financial obligations, impose only the $500 victim penalty
assessment7 and reserve restitution for 180 days.” (Emphasis added.) The
record supports that the trial court found Boudrieau indigent and ordered only
mandatory LFOs. No one mentioned supervision fees. Just like the judgment
and sentence form in Dillon, the judgment and sentence form here included a
7
The $500 victim penalty assessment is a mandatory fee under
RCW 7.68.035(1)(a).
16
No. 81762-1-I
lengthy boilerplate paragraph that presumes the court will order the defendant to
“[p]ay supervision fees.”8 We order the community custody supervision fees be
stricken from the judgment and sentence.
Offender Score
The parties agree that Boudrieau’s offender score was based on two prior
convictions of possession of a controlled substance that should not be included
following State v. Blake, 197 Wn.2d 170, 481 P.3d 521 (2021). A prior conviction
that is constitutionally invalid on its face may not be included in the offender

to accordingly correct the judgment and sentence.
CONCLUSION
We affirm Boudrieau’s convictions but remand for resentencing to correct
her offender score under Blake, to correct the judgment and sentence by noting
that the same criminal conduct supported both convictions, and to strike her
community custody supervision fees.
