Description

1. Criminal law ? Previous conviction of crime not admissible. In rape prosecution, permitting prosecution to introduce statements of defendant tending to show he had committed rape on another woman some time prior to commission of act for which he was on trial, was error. 2. Criminal law ? Impeachment ? Evidence must be confined to general reputation. - Page 110 Evidence given either in support or impeachment of character of one accused of crime must be confined to general reputation and cannot be extended to particular acts. 3. Criminal law ? Proof of other crimes may be prejudicial. Proof that accused committed other crimes, even if they were of like nature to that charged, is not admissible to show his depravity or criminal propensities, or the resultant liklihood of his committing the offense charged, nor may such evidence be offered if it only tends to create a prejudice against accused in minds of jury. 4. Criminal law ? Defendant tried for but one offense. A defendant can be tried for and convicted of but one offense, that charged in the information. 5. Rape ? Every act is offense. Every act of sexual intercourse constituting rape is a separate and distinct offense. 6. Criminal law ? Election of offenses. The right to compel the state to elect which of two offenses defendant is to be prosecuted for is a personal right of the defendant.
