The opinion of the court was delivered by NUSS, C.J.:
A jury convicted Eric Ochs of the rape of 11-year-old D.T. in violation of K.S.A. 21-3502(a)(2) (sexual intercourse with a child who is under 14 years of age). Because Ochs was older than 17 years, the crime was an off-grid person felony per K.S.A. 21-3502(c). The district court sentenced him to a "hard 25" lifetime prison term under K.S.A. 21-4643(a)(1)(B). He now directly appeals under K.S.A. 22-3601(b).
