High Court UphOlds
Conviction of Young

Holding that the jury is the sole
judge of facts presented to it, the
supreme court today upheld the
conviction Of Max Young, Suits
man county, who was found gull
ty Of a rape charge.
The defense appealed, charging
errors by the district court at the
trial and in refusing to charge the
jury regarding the credibility of
the prosecuting witness. The de-
PENDANT also asked for new trial
on the ground of newly discovered
evidence. The court held, how
ever, that "evidence forgotten OF
otherwise overlooked is not the
newly discovered evidence required
a. basis for new trial"
"Th4 jury is the sole judge OF
the facts in criminal case and
where the testimony is such that
reasonable minds may believe the
charge. alleged in the information
has been proven, the verdict Of the
Jury is conclusive as to its suf-
ficiencr,' the court held. It also
held fAat Young had received q
fair trial. ).
