State v. Askew
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided August 31, 2004 · Breckenridge, Howard, Smart
142 S.W.3d 224; 2004 Mo. App. LEXIS 1208; 2004 WL 1926172 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

State v. Askew

Opinion of the Court

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Kenneth Askew appeals from the judgment entered upon his convictions by a jury for kidnapping, forcible rape, and forcible sodomy. He claims that the trial court erred in overruling his objections to the victim’s testimony that he told her his name was “Killer,” which scared her. He claims the evidence of his nickname was not logically or legally relevant to prove that he held the victim against her will or forced her to engage in sexual activity, and he was prejudiced thereby.

Judgment affirmed. Rule 30.25(b).
