SUMMARY OPINIONJQHn d. hadden
CLERK
LUMPKIN, PRESIDING JUDGE:
Appellant Brian N. Terry was tried by jury and convicted of three
(3) counts of First Degree Rape (Counts 1-3) (21 O.S.2021, § 1114(A))1;
three (3) counts of Forcible Sodomy (Counts 5-7) (21 O.S.2021, §
888(A)); Kidnapping (Count 8) (21 O.S.2021, § 741); and Stalking
(misdemeanor) (Count 9) (21 O.S.2021, § 1173) in the District Court of
Tulsa County, Case No. CF-2022-1651. The jury returned sentences
of imprisonment for five (5) years in each of Counts 1 and 3; ten (10)
years in Count 2; one year in each of Counts 5, 6, and 7; two (2) years
in Count 8; and a one-thousand-dollar ($1,000.00) fine in Count 9.
1 The trial court sustained a demurrer to the First-Degree Rape charge in Count
4.
APPENDIX A
The trial court suspended the fine in Count 9, but otherwise sentenced
accordingly, ordering the sentences to run consecutively with credit for
time served.2 Appellant appeals from this conviction and sentence and
raises the following propositions of error:
I.
The State presented insufficient evidence to sustain
a conviction for the felony of Sodomy as charged in
Count Six;
IL
The jury was given contradictory information in the
instructions as to Count Six;
III.
[Appellant] was denied a fair trial by prosecutorial
misconduct;
IV.
[Appellant] was denied a fair trial before an unbiased
jury when the trial court denied [Appellant’s]
challenges for cause against jurors number 10 and
15, RP and LG;
V.
[Appellant] was denied the effective assistance of
counsel;
VI.
The accumulation of errors deprived [Appellant] of a
fair trial.
After thorough consideration of these propositions and the
entire record before us on appeal including the original record,
2 Appellant must serve 85% of his sentence in Counts 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 before
becoming eligible for consideration for parole. 21 O.S.2021, § 13.1.
2
transcripts, and briefs of the parties, we have determined that under
the law and the evidence, no relief is warranted.
In Proposition I, Appellant challenges the sufficiency of the
evidence supporting the conviction for forcible sodomy in Count 6.
Specifically, he argues that A.S.’s testimony was insufficient to prove
the required element of penetration. See Hicks v. State, 1986 OK CR
7, 5 7, 713 P.2d 18, 20 (penetration is an essential element of sodomy).
In challenges to the sufficiency of the evidence, this Court follows
the standard of review set forth in Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307,
319 (1979); Easlick v. State, 2004 OK CR 21,
Spuehler u. State, 1985 OK CR 132,
15, 90 P.3d 556, 559;
7, 79 P.2d 202, 203-04. See
Cochlin v. State, 2020 OK CR 23, | 4, 479 P.3d 534, 536. Under this
test, “the relevant question is whether, after viewing the evidence in
the light most favorable to the prosecution, any rational trier of fact
could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a
reasonable doubt.” Cochlin, 2020 OK CR 23,
4, 479 P.3d at 536
(quoting Jackson, 443 U.S. at 319; Easlick^ 2004 OK CR 21,
5,
90P.3d at 558; Spuehler, 1985 OK CR 132, K 7, 709 P.2d at 203-04).
“This Court must accept all reasons, inferences, and credibility choices
3
that tend to support the verdict.” Id. (citing Taylor v. State, 2011 OK
CR 8, J 13, 248 P.3d 362, 368).
In prosecution for forcible sodomy, we “do not require graphic
testimony concerning the actual penetration but will review the
evidence as a whole to see if ‘any rational trier of fact could have found
the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt.’” Bales
v. State, 1992 OK CR 24,
5, 829 P.2d 998, 999 (quoting Simms v.
State, 1987 OK CR 67, H 11-12, 735 P.2d 344, 347).
See also
Commander v. State, 1987 OK CR 43, | 5, 734 P.2d 313, 315 (“[t]he
testimony need not be graphic; it is sufficient if there is some testimony
to show penetration.”). Proof of any penetration, however slight, is
sufficient. See Hicks, 1986 OK CR 7,
7, 713 P.2d at 20 (citing 21 O.S.
§ 887).
A.S. testified in part that Appellant forced her to “put my mouth
on his butt and perform oral sex on him.” Leah Oliver, the
SANE
nurse, testified that during the SANE exam, she asked A.S. very
pointed questions about penetration of different parts of her body and
Appellant’s body. Oliver testified that A.S. told her “[h]e made her give
him head, suck his balls, eat him out anally.” Considered together, this
testimony generally conveys the idea of penetration. Considering the
4
entirety of A.S.’s testimony, her descriptions of the act sufficiently
established the element of penetration.
The credibility of witnesses and the weight and consideration to
be given to their testimony are within the exclusive province of the trier
of facts. Wall v. State, 2020 OK CR 9, H 20, 465 P.3d 227, 233-34;
Bland v. State, 2000 OK CR 11,129,4 P.3d 702, 714. “It is well settled
that where there is competent evidence from which the jury could
reasonably conclude the defendant was guilty as charged, this Court
will not interfere with the verdict despite a conflict in the evidence from
which different. inferences may be drawn.” Palmer v. State, 1994 OK
CR 16, U 14, 873 P.2d 429, 433. Viewing the evidence in the light most
favorable to the State, any rational trier of fact could have found
beyond a reasonable doubt the State proved the element of penetration
and the evidence was sufficient to support a finding of guilt of forcible
sodomy. This proposition is denied.
In Proposition II, Appellant again raises a challenge to Count 6
and argues that the jury instructions were contradictory on a material
fact. Specifically, he argues that it was contradictory to inform the jury
that he was charged in Count 6 for having A.S. “put her mouth on his
anus” (emphasis added), but then instruct them that the elements of
5
forcible sodomy required “penetration of the anus”. Appellant asserts
that “[d]ue to the contradictory information contained in the
instructions, the jury was not provided an ample understanding of the
issues presented and the standards to be applied to a material issue”,
and as such his conviction in Count 6 should be reversed.
As Appellant did not raise this objection at trial (defense counsel
even specifically stated he had no objection to the instruction) review
on appeal is only for plain error. Arce v. State, 2023 OK CR 9, 1 13,
530 P.3d 472, 477-78. Under the plain error test set forth in Simpson
v. State, 1994 OK CR 40,10, 26, 30, 876 P.2d 690, 694, 699, 701
and Hogan v. State, 2006 OK CR 19, 1 38, 139 P.3d 907, 923 this
Court determines whether the appellant has shown an actual error,
which is plain or obvious, and which affects his or her substantial
rights. This Court will only correct plain error if the error seriously
affects the fairness, integrity or public reputation of the judicial
proceedings or otherwise represents a miscarriage ofjustice. See also
Chadwell v. State, 2019 OK CR 14,1 4, 446 P.3d 1244, 1246; Bivens
v. State, 2018 OK CR 33, 1 11, 431 P.3d 985, 992.
It is the trial court’s duty to fully instruct the jury on the
applicable law. Jones v. State, 2009 OK CR 1,
6
63, 201 P.3d 869, 886.
Jury instructions are sufficient if when read as a whole they state the
applicable law. Id. “It is implicit that in order for jury instructions to
accurately state the law they must provide the jury with ample
understanding of the issues presented and the standards to be
applied.” Omalza v. State, 1995 OK CR 80
52, 911 P.2d 286, 303.
“When instructions are self-contradictoiy on material issues and
cannot be harmonized, plain error occurs.” Id.
The jury was instructed, both verbally before the presentation of
evidence, and in writing, after the presentation of evidence, on the
charges against Appellant in the words of the felony Informations. This
included language in Count 6 that A.S. was forced to “put her mouth
on his anus”.
After being informed of the charges, the jury was
instructed, both orally and in writing, that the felony Information was
only the formal method of accusing the defendant of a crime and was
not evidence of guilt.
In the written instructions given at the close of evidence, the jury
was also informed that the following instructions “contain all rules of
the law that are to be applied by you in this case, and all the rules of
law by which you are to weigh the evidence and determine the facts in
issue in deciding this case and in reaching a verdict.” The jury was
7
then instructed on the statutory elements of the charged offenses with
the proviso that no one could be convicted of the charged offenses
unless the State proved each of those elements beyond a reasonable
doubt. This included Instruction No. 32 which properly set out the
elements of Forcible Sodomy pursuant to 21 O.S. § 887, 888(A). See
Oklahoma Uniform Jury Instruction Criminal (2d) 4-128. The jury was
further instructed that “any sexual penetration, however slight, is
sufficient to complete the crime.”
Appellant has failed to show how any inconsistencies between
terms used in the felony Informations and jury instructions misled
or confused the jury as to what was required to find guilt. The
difference between the charging information and the requirements
for a finding of guilt were repeatedly and explicitly explained to the
jury. “Juries are presumed to follow their instructions.” Zafiro v. U.S.,
506 U.S. 534, 540-41 (1993) (citing Richardson v. Marsh, 481 U.S.
200, 211 (1987); Sanders v. State, 2015 OK CR 11, U 15, 358 P.3d
280, 285. Appellant has not shown the jury had any problems in
following their instructions.
Reviewing the instructions in their entirety, the jury was properly
instructed on the applicable law. Therefore, we find no error and thus
8
no plain error. See Mitchell v. State, 2018 OK CR 24,
22, 424 P.3d
677, 684 (“[t]his Court will deny relief on a claim of jury instruction
error when the juiy instructions, as a whole, accurately state the
applicable law”). This proposition is denied.
In Proposition III, Appellant claims the prosecutor improperly
vouched for the credibility of A.S. on numerous occasions during
closing argument.
However, no objections were raised by defense
counsel at any point in the State’s closing on the grounds of improper
vouching. Therefore, our review on appeal is for plain error under the
standard set forth above. Oliver v. State, 2022 OK CR 15, | 4, 516
P.3d 699, 704-705.
We evaluate alleged prosecutorial misconduct within the context
of the entire trial, considering not only the propriety of the prosecutor’s
actions, but also the strength of the evidence against the defendant
and the corresponding arguments of defense counsel. Sanders, 2015
OK CR 11, H 21, 358 P.3d at 286. We will reverse the judgment or
modify the sentence only where grossly improper and unwarranted
argument affects a defendant’s rights. Id.
“It is error for the State to personally vouch for the credibility of
its witnesses.” Nickell v. State, 1994 OK CR 73,
9
7, 885 P.2d 670, 673.
“Argument ...
is impermissible vouching only if the jury could
reasonably believe that the prosecutor is indicating a personal belief in
the witness’ credibility, either through explicit personal assurances of
the witness’ veracity or by implicitly indicating that information not
presented to the jury supports the witness’ testimony.” Id. (quoting
United States v. Bowie, 892 F.2d 1494, 1498 (10th Cir. 1990). See also
Oliver, 2022 OKCR 15,
5, 516 P.3d at 705 (citing Bench v. State,
2018 OK CR 31, 1 90, 431 P.3d 929, 957).
Appellant directs us to specific comments made during the
second portion of the State’s closing argument where the prosecutor
said that A.S. was honest. Appellant also makes a general reference
to “other opportunities” which the prosecutor had “to make the vety
same argument that A.S. was honest.” He references four (4) pages in
the transcript but does not identify the specific comments to which he
is now objecting, nor does he make any further argument as to why
the comments are improper. This conclusory statement of error
without development of any argument has waived that part of the claim
for our appellate review. See Rule 3.5.(A)(5)), Rules of the Oklahoma
Court of Criminal Appeals, Title 22, Ch. 18, App. (2025) (requiring
argument in support of a proposition of error supported by citation of
10
authorities, statutes and parts of the record). See Knapper v. State,
2020 OK CR 16,
89, 73 P.3d 1053, 1080 (finding claim waived where
inadequately developed).
We have reviewed the comments specifically challenged by
Appellant and find they do not constitute improper vouching.
Reviewing the comments in context, and in light of defense counsel’s
closing argument we find the comments proper as 1) they were made
in response to arguments raised in defense counsel’s closing
argument, Oliver, 2022 OK CR 15, | 17, 516 P.3d at 707; ( “[t]he
prosecution may [] properly respond to the defense theory or to the
defense characterization of the State’s case”); 2) they were based on
the evidence and within the wide range of discussion allowed in closing
argument, Bench, 2018 OK CR 31,
123, 431 P.3d at 963. (“[c]ounsel
are permitted to fully discuss from their standpoint the evidence, the
inferences and deductions arising from it”); and 3) the prosecutor did
not tell the jury to abandon its duty to consider the evidence and
convict based only on the prosecutor’s opinion, Williams v. State, 2008
OK CR 19,
107, 188 P.3d 208, 228 (“the prosecutor is not telling the
jury to abandon its duty and convict based on the prosecutor’s own
opinion.”).
11
Having thoroughly reviewed Appellant's challenges, we find the
prosecutor’s conduct was not so improper or prejudicial so as to have
infected the trial so that it was rendered fundamentally unfair. The
prosecutor’s comments were not personal assurances of the victim’s
credibility, and did not urge the jury to divert from its duty to decide
the case on the law and the evidence. We find no error, and thus no
plain error. This proposition of error is denied.
In Proposition IV, Appellant asserts the trial court abused its
discretion when it refused his requests to dismiss prospective jurors
R.P. and L.G. for cause. Appellant argues that the trial court’s ruling
forced him to use peremptory challenges to remove the two prospective
jurors from the jury which exhausted his peremptory challenges. A
request for additional peremptory challenges to strike A.K. and K.P.
from the jury was denied, leaving A.K. and K.P., who Appellant calls
"unacceptable”, on the jury. Appellant asserts he was prejudiced by
their service on the jury.
“In order to properly preserve for appellate review an objection to
a denial of a challenge for cause, a defendant must demonstrate that
he was forced over objection to keep an unacceptable juror.”5 Nolen v.
State, 2021 OK CR 5,
97, 485 P.3d 829, 852-53 (quoting Eizember v.
12
State, 2007 OK CR 29, 1 36, 164 P.3d 208, 220). “This requires a
defendant to excuse the challenged juror with a peremptory challenge
and make a record of which remaining jurors the defendant would
have excused if he had not used that peremptory challenge to cure the
trial court’s alleged erroneous denial of the for cause challenge.’” Id.
Appellant has properly preserved for appellate review his challenge to
the jury.
“The United States Supreme Court has held that, ‘[i]n essence,
the right to jury trial guarantees to the criminally accused a fair trial
by a panel of impartial, ‘indifferent’jurors.1” Nolen, 2021 OK CR 5,
111, 485 P.3d at 856 (quoting Irvin v. Dowd, 366 U.S. 717, 722,
(1961)). “This guarantee includes the right to be tried by jurors who
are capable of putting aside their personal impressions and opinions
and rendering a verdict based solely on the evidence presented in
court.” Id. “The decision of whether to disqualify a prospective juror
for cause lies within the sound discretion of the trial court.” Nolen,
2021 OK CR 5, | 98, 485 P.3d at 853 (citing Mitchell v. State, 2010 OK
CR 14, H 19, 235 P.3d 640, 647). “The trial court’s decision will not be
overturned absent a finding of an abuse of discretion.” Id.
13
“We give broad deference on appeal to the trial court’s rulings on
for-cause challenges.” Tryon v. State, 2018 OK CR 20,
30, 423 P.3d
617, 631. “The trial court is vested with considerable discretion in
matters involving selection of jurors, because it is able to personally
observe the panehsts, and take into account a number of non-verbal
factors that do not transfer well, if at all, to the transcript page.” Grant
v. State, 2009 OKCR 11,1 17, 205 P.3d 1, 11. See also Mitchell, 2010
OK CR 14, 1 19, 235 P.3d at 647-48 (“we “generally defer to the
impressions of the trial court, which can better assess whether a
potential juror would be unable to fulfill his or her oath”).
Appellant argues that R.P. should have been removed for cause
because “he had clear leanings toward the State,” his “histoiy as a
sexual abuse victim”, and his “hesitation in responding to questions
regarding his ability to be a fair juror.” Regarding prospective juror
L.G., Appellant argues he should have been excused for cause because
of his “express leanings for the State” and affirming that even without
knowing anything about the case, he was leaning towards the State,
that it wasn’t even a “50-50 balance” for the defendant.
To determine if the trial court properly ruled on a challenge for
cause, this Court will review the entirety of the prospective juror’s voir
14
dire examination, and not just isolated answers. Underwood v. State,
2011 OK CR 12,1 37, 252 P.3d 221, 240; Gilbert v. State, 1997 OK CR
71,
26, 951 P.2d 98, 108. “We will reverse the lower court’s ruling on
a for-cause challenge where there is no support for it in the record.”
Tryon, 2018 OK CR 20, ^[31, 423 P.3d at 631. Reviewing the entirety
of the voir dire of R.P. and L.G., and not just isolated responses as
urged by Appellant, we find the trial court did not abuse its discretion
in refusing to excuse either prospective juror for cause. Both R.P. and
L.G. said they could be fair and impartial, and as their voir dire
examinations progressed, it became clear that each could set aside his
personal experiences and render a fair and impartial verdict based
solely on the evidence admitted in court. See Tryon, 2018 OK CR 20,
H 35, 423 P.3d at 631 (finding no abuse in trial court’s denial of for
cause challenge where “voir dire made it evident that he could in fact
set aside his personal experiences and render a fair and impartial
verdict based solely on the evidence admitted in court”). Any
ambiguities or inconsistencies in L.G.’s responses to counsel were
resolved through the trial court’s additional questioning. Having
personally observed L.G.’s demeanor throughout voir dire, the court
found his responses credible and insufficient to excuse for cause. Id.,
15
(“[hjaving benefit of observing [the prospective juror’s] demeanor
throughout voir dire, the court found her responses credible and
insufficient to excuse her for cause.”)
Our review of the totality of the voir dire examinations of both R.P.
and L.G. supports the trial court's decision not to remove them for
cause.
Further, Appellant has failed to show that he was prejudiced by
the service of A.K. and K.P. on the jury. “Any claim of jury partiality
must focus on the jurors who ultimately sat.” Frederick, v. State, 2017
OK CR 12, H 15, 400 P.3d 786, 800, (overruled on other grounds by
Williamson v. State, 2018 OK CR 15, If 5, n. 1, 422 P.3d 752, 762 n. 1).
Appellant must establish prejudice in order to warrant relief. Id (citing
Rojem v. Stale, 2006 OK CR 7, 1] 36, 130 P.3d 287, 295).
Appellant has not provided any argument supporting his claims
that A.K. and K.P. were “unacceptable” jurors and “should not have
been permitted to serve.” The record of voir dire shows that defense
counsel objected to A.K.’s service because of “mental health
background” and to K.P’s service because he had relatives who were
prosecutors and two other family members who were crime victims.
16
The relevant question in this situation is whether “as a result of
the trial court’s rulings, Appellant was forced, over objection, to keep
an ‘unacceptable’juror.” Dauison v. State, 2020 OK CR 22, If 54, 478
P.3d 462, 476. “An ‘unacceptable juror’—which the Court has at times
referred to as a juror who is ‘undesirable’ to the defendant’s position—
means a trial juror: (1) who served over the defendant's objection after
the trial court denied the defendant an additional peremptory to
remove the juror as unacceptable; (2) who voiced views or opinions in
voir dire that raise a reasonable doubt about the juror’s bias against
the defendant and/or the defendant's position; and (3) whom any
reasonable attorney in the position of defense counsel would have
removed with a peremptory.” Id. 2020 OK CR 22,
56, 478 P.3d at
476.
We have thoroughly reviewed the voir dire of both A.K. and K.P.
and find nothing in their responses indicating that either of them could
not be a fair and impartial juror. See Grant v. State, 2009 OK CR 11, If
22, 205 P.3d 1, 12 (prospective juror assured court that police officers
she came in contact with while working at a restaurant would have no
impact on her ability to serve as a juror). The “mental health
background” of Juror A.K. can only refer to her saying she had taken
17
a mental health class as part of occupational therapy training. She
made no other references to any issues with her personal mental
health. Defense counsel’s general comment before the trial court
regarding A.K. that “there were other questions and answers that did
not sit well with me” does not support a conclusion that any reasonable
attorney in defense counsel’s position would have removed her with a
peremptory.
As for K.P., he said both an aunt and uncle were prosecutors,
another aunt had been raped in 2000 and yet another aunt was
murdered in 1995. In response to questioning by the court and both
counsel, K.P. said there was nothing about his personal experiences
that would cause him to favor or disfavor one side over the other, and
that having prosecutors in his family would not make him biased
towards or against the defendant in any way. K.P. provided no reasons
why his family relationships and experiences would cause him to be
biased.
Having thoroughly reviewed Appellant’s claims of error in context
of the entire voir dire, we find Appellant has failed to show that as a
result of the trial court’s denying his request to excuse R.P. and L.G.
18
for cause that he was denied a fair and impartial jury by the inclusion
of A.K. and K.P. on the jury. This proposition is denied.
In Proposition V, Appellant contends he was denied the effective
assistance of counsel by counsel’s failure to object to the prosecutor’s
vouching for the credibility of A.S. during closing argument.
We review Appellant’s claim of ineffective assistance under the
standard set forth in Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984).
Sanders, 2015 OK CR 11, | 29, 358 P.3d at 287. In order to show
that counsel was ineffective, Appellant must show both deficient
performance and prejudice. Id (citing Strickland, 466 U.S. at 687). In
Strickland, the Supreme Court said there is a strong presumption
that counsel’s conduct falls within the wide range of reasonable
professional conduct,
i.e.,
an appellant must overcome the
presumption that, under the circumstances, counsel’s conduct
constituted sound trial strategy. Sanders, 2015 OK CR 11,
29, 358
P.3d at 287. To establish prejudice, Appellant must show that there
is a “reasonable probability that, but for counsel’s unprofessional
errors, the result of the proceeding would have been different.” Id.
A reasonable probability is a probability sufficient to undermine the
confidence in the outcome. Id. (citing Harrington v. Richter, 562 U.S.
19
86, 111-112 (2011)). When a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel
can be disposed of on the ground of lack of prejudice, that course
should be followed. Strickland, 466 U.S. at 696.
In Proposition III, we addressed Appellant’s claims of improper
vouching and found no grounds for relief. We found the prosecutor’s
comments were within the range of discussion allowed in closing
argument as the comments were: 1) made in response to comments
made during defense counsel’s closing argument; 2) based on the
evidence; and 3) did not give the jury personal assurances of the
victim’s credibility, and did not urge the jury to divert from its duty
to decide the case on the law and the evidence. As the comments were
not improper, any objection by defense counsel would have been
overruled. Counsel will not be found ineffective for failing to raise
objections that would have been overruled. Coffinan v. State, 2022
OK CR 23, 1) 15, 519 P.3d 101, 107.
Based upon the record before us, Appellant has failed to show
a reasonable probability of a different outcome at trial if counsel had
raised the objections he now finds appropriate. Counsel’s conduct
did not constitute the kind of serious professional error that amounts
to deficient performance under Strickland. As Appellant has shown
20
neither deficient performance nor prejudice under Strickland, his
claim of ineffective assistance of counsel is denied.
In Proposition VI, Appellant argues the cumulative effect of the
errors addressed above denied him a fair trial. Appellant “respectfully
requests” this Court reverse his conviction or in the alternative
favorably modify his sentence.
This Court has held that a cumulative error argument has no
merit when this Court fails to sustain any of the other errors raised by
Appellant. Gillioms v. State, 2022 OK CR 3, Tf 44, 504 P.3d 613, 623.
Finding no errors in this appeal warranting relief, we find no relief is
warranted by the accumulation of errors. This proposition is denied.
