Description
The defendant was charged with second-degree assault, and, after counsel had been appointed to represent him and had been given an opportunity to prepare his defense, he entered a plea of guilty. He appeared for sentencing on September 28, 1956, and at that time, statements of the prosecuting witnesses, husband and wife, concerning the circumstances of the crime, were read into the record. If the accusations contained in these statements were true, the defendant was also chargeable with attempted rape and sodomy at the time and place of the assault. One of the witnesses appeared at the hearing and asked the court to deal leniently with the defendant, stating, in effect, that if he had not acted so hastily in defense of his wife, the defendant might not have assaulted him. At the conclusion of this hearing, the court entered judgment against the defendant and sentenced him to a maximum of fifteen years in the state reformatory.
