Schwenke v. State
Wyoming Supreme Court
1Opinion of the Court
GOLDEN, Justice.
A jury convicted appellant Keith Schwenke of taking indecent liberties with his thirteen-year-old son. He now challenges the process by which that jury was selected and asserts as error a number of the trial court’s evidentiary decisions.
We will affirm.
Appellant states the issues on appeal as follows:
I
The trial court improperly conducted voir dire by pressuring jurors to ignore their biases and prejudices and erroneously refused, on three occasions, to excuse jurors for cause after they expressed bias or prejudice against the accused or against serving in a case of this nature.
