State v. Foster
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of two counts of gross sexual assault, four counts of impersonating a public servant, and two counts of engaging a prostitute. The convictions were based on Defendant’s pretending to be a police officer in order to induce three of four women who were engaged in prostitution to have sex with him as he demanded. Defendant appealed, arguing that the indictment and jury verdict form did not adequately distinguish among separate allegations involving each victim, in violation of his due process rights. The Supreme Judicial Court affirmed, holding that the constitutional issues that Defendant now asserts were waived.
