The trial judge, having seen and heard witnesses, was entitled to accept the consistent evidence of the complainant and her daughter, supported by an independent witness, and to reject the defendant's account; absent a demonstrable error in the credibility assessment or that the conviction was unsafe, the appellate court will not disturb the conviction.
