Woodall v. State

KAREN R. BAKER, Justice.

| Appellant Brian Joseph Woodall appeals his conviction by a Lonoke County Circuit Court jury of one count of rape for which he was sentenced to twenty-five years in the Arkansas Department of Correction. On appeal, he raises two arguments for reversal: the trial court erred in (1) ruling inadmissible statements made by the victim regarding her sexual history; and (2) not granting a mistrial because of statements made by a venire member during voir dire.
