State v. Greene
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of rape. The district court sentenced Defendant to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole after adjudging him an aggravated habitual sex offender. The Supreme Court affirmed Defendant’s conviction but vacated Defendant’s sentence, holding (1) the district court erroneously admitted statements Defendant made in a pretrial notice of alibi, but there was no reasonable possibility that the error contributed to the verdict; and (2) the Supreme Court’s ruling in State v. Turner required that Defendant be sentenced as a persistent sex offender rather than as a habitual sex offender. Remanded for resentencing.
