Fretwell v. State

OPINION

DOUGLAS, Judge.

The conviction is for sodomy; the punishment, ten years.

The record reflects that appellant offered his fourteen-year-old stepdaughter a choice to commit sodomy or have sexual intercourse with him. She refused to choose, and he forced her to commit an act of sodomy. The prosecutrix testified that on one occasion he choked her with his belt until she stopped resisting his attempt to have sexual intercourse with her; that he forced her to have intercourse with him on five or six occasions; and, that he also forced her to commit acts of sodomy on six or seven other occasions.
