Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Fayette County, Richard D. Stochl, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Heard by Ahlers, P.J., and Chicchelly and Buller, JJ.  Opinion by Chicchelly, J.  (13 pages)

            Max Evan Meharry Stone appeals from the trial court’s finding that he is a sexually violent predator and therefore should be civilly committed pursuant to Iowa Code chapter 229A (2019).  OPINION HOLDS: Because we find that Stone’s constitutional rights were not violated, the court did not abuse its discretion in its evidentiary ruling, and sufficient evidence supports the court’s verdict, we affirm.
