1. “On the showing made and in light of State v. Calhoun, 694 So.2d at 909 , we find that the trial court’s failure to notify the defendant of the registration requirements in this case undercut the voluntariness of the defendant’s guilty plea. In addition to the failure to notify, we also note that the original defense counsel was appointed on the day of arraignment and could not have properly investigated the case prior to defendant’s entry of a guilty plea on that same day. The preliminary hearing transcript shows that the victim’s statements to the police were inconsistent, and her statements were made eight months after the rape occurred when the customary examination was impossible. Under the totality of the circumstances, we find that the trial court abused its discretion by denying the motion to withdraw the guilty plea. See State v. Myers, 98-1213 (La.App. 4 Cir. 2/9/00) , 753 So.2d 921 .”
