holding that victim’s identification of assailant is sufficient
How later courts described this case
- holding that victim’s identification of assailant is sufficient
- sufficient evidence of penetration to support rape conviction where victim testified that defendant had "that much of his penis in me."
- a conviction may rest solely on the uncorroborated testimony of a victim
- victim identification alone is sufficient evidence of identification
Written by the judges who cited it.
The opinion
SELBY, Justice,
concurs in part and dissents in part.
I would affirm the trial court in all respects. There was sufficient evidence from which the jury could infer that the defendant, unsuccessful in his attempt to insert his penis completely, inserted his fingers into the victim’s vagina.
