State v. Turgeon
Supreme Court of Vermont
1Opinion of the CourtMorse, J.
Defendant John Turgeon appeals his conviction on nine criminal charges, including attempted aggravated murder, contending that the trial court erred in: (1) fading to instruct the jury on attempted voluntary manslaughter; (2) failing to enter judgment of acquittal on the charge of escape; (3) instructing the jury on the use of reasonable force in arrest; and (4) failing to grant a mistrial after a juror collapsed. Defendant also contends that his right to a speedy trial was violated, and that his sentence was wrongfully increased. We reverse the conviction for escape, but otherwise affirm.
