Ricky Horne appeals his conviction for second degree rape and his life sentence under the Persistent Offender Accountability Act.

App. 659, 223 P.3d 1194

State v.Thorne, 129 Wn.2d 736, 921 P.2d 514 (1996); State v.Manussier, 129 Wn.2d 652, 921 P.2d 473 (1996), cert.denied, 520 U.S. 1201 (1997); State v.
