State v. Thompson

ANDERSON, J.:

Danny Thompson was indicted for first degree criminal sexual conduct, kidnapping, and carjacking. A jury convicted Thompson of all three charges. The trial court sentenced him to concurrent thirty year terms of imprisonment for criminal sexual conduct and kidnapping, and a concurrent twenty year term of imprisonment for carjacking. Thompson argues the trial court erred in admitting improper hearsay testimony and in failing to declare a mistrial after evidence of his prior bad acts was improperly introduced. We affirm. 1
