Alex v. State

Opinion of the Court

*112OPINION

Per Curiam:

Walter Alex, through a post-conviction proceeding, seeks release from prison on the ground that another person, one Alfred β€œCat” Adams, committed the crime. Adams so testified. The district court did not believe his testimony since he had come forward in like fashion for other convicted persons, and since the record of the trial otherwise supports the conviction of Alex. The court acted within its discretion.

Affirmed.
