State v. Jensen

Justice Beth Baker delivered the Opinion of the Court.

***120¶1 A Jefferson County jury found Corey D. Jensen guilty of two counts of criminal endangerment, one count of driving under the influence of alcohol, and one count of open container violation. Jensen was charged after he drove a dangerous section of I-15 at speeds up to 150 miles per hour. Jensen appeals the criminal endangerment convictions, arguing that the District Court erred in denying his proposed jury instruction on negligent endangerment as a lesser included offense of criminal endangerment. We affirm.
