Nowlin v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Nowlin v. State, 253 Ark. 57 (Ark. 1972)
484 S.W.2d 339
Byrd
Nowlin v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellants James Nowlin, Bruce Nowlin and Gary Nowlin were convicted of third degree rape for having sexual intercourse with a girl under 16 years of age upon the uncorroborated testimony of the prosecuting witness. They contend that such uncorroborated testimony is insufficient to sustain a conviction. We have held to the contrary in numerous cases. See Ragsdale v. State, 132 Ark. 210, 200 S.W. 802 (1918): Rogers v. State, 237 Ark. 437, 373 S.W. 2d 705 (1963); Skaggs v. State, 234 Ark. 510, 353 S.W. 2d 3 (1961); and Powell v. State, 231 Ark. 737, 332 S.W. 2d 483 (1960).
Affirmed.
