State v. Most
Annotate this CaseDennis Most was convicted in a bench trial of four counts of sexual contact with a child. Most appealed, contending (1) the trial court erred in denying his motion to exclude prior acts evidence and his motion to offer the victim's prior allegation of sexual assault, and (2) there was insufficient evidence to sustain his convictions. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it admitted prior acts evidence; (2) the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it denied Most's motion to offer evidence of the victim's prior allegation of sexual assault; and (3) there was sufficient evidence to sustain Most's convictions.
