Description
Gerald H. Cook, the defendant, Frank P. Downey and Ronald L. Brower were charged by information substituted for an indictment with prior felony convictions and with having on June 13, 1965 forcibly raped Jenny Savisky, a female over the age of sixteen years. Section 559.260, RSMo 1959, V.A.M.S. Defendant, tried separately from his co-defendants, was convicted by a jury; the court assessed his punishment and sentenced him to imprisonment for fifteen years. Sections 556.280 and 559.260, RSMo 1959, V.A.M.S. Defendant appeals. He was represented at the trial and in this court by counsel of his own choice. The sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the conviction is not questioned. Defendant relies for reversal on three points that the court erred in the exclusion of evidence.
