A jury found William Dean Boileau guilty of aggravated child molestation and aggravated sodomy. On appeal, he challenges the sufficiency of the evidence of his guilt and the trial court’s admission of similar transaction evidence. Because these challenges are without merit, we affirm. Construed in favor of the verdict, the evidence reveals that en route to Ocala, Florida from Missouri, Boileau, his father, mother, and niece —the ten-year-old victim, stopped in Perry, Georgia Houston County to refuel. The family traveled in a Ford truck with a camper on the back. Before the stop, Boileau and his father were riding in the cab of the truck while the victim and Boileau’s mother slept in the camper.

After the stop in Perry, Boileau moved into the camper and his mother moved to the cab of the truck. The victim testified that at some point she awoke when she felt Boileau pulling her pants and underwear down. She testified further that Boileau then “started licking her down there.” The victim later told a DFACS investigator that after Boileau put his mouth on her vagina, she felt something pushing into her vagina and that she wasn’t sure if it was Boileau’s finger or penis, but that she thought it was his penis because she didn’t feel a fingernail. She stated further she then felt Boileau shaking, and that when he stopped, she felt “slimy stuff” on her body. She told the investigator that during this encounter, “she felt that —she couldn’t say anything. She was very scared, she just wanted him to stop.” The victim explained that she later felt a burning sensation while urinating. Once the victim arrived in Ocala, Florida, she wrote Boileau’s mother her grandmother, a note explaining what Boileau had done while they were in the camper together and left it on her grandmother’s bed.
