Indiana Supreme Court

Decided June 26, 1906No. 20,731PublishedCited by 9 opinions

From Gibson Circuit Court; O. M. Welborn, Judge. Prosecution by the State of Indiana against Finis Tisdale. From a judgment of conviction, he appeals.

1Opinion of the CourtMonks, J.

Appellant was convicted of the crime of rape, and final judgment rendered against him on August 26, 1905.

By his counsel he contends: (1) That the verdict of the jury is contrary to the law and the evidence. He admits the act of intercourse, but insists that the evidence did not show such resistance on the part of the prosecuting witness as the law requires to sustain a charge of rape. (2) That there was no proof that the alleged offense was committed in Gibson county, Indiana, as alleged in the indictment. Nor these reasons he insists that this court should “give him another trial.”
