Description
Appellant was convicted of the crime of forcible rape by the verdict of the jury under § 559.260.* Having been found
to be a second offender under § 556.280 he was sentenced by the court to five years' imprisonment in the Department
of Corrections. On this appeal, among other points, he challenges the submissibility to the jury of the state's case against
him. The victim and prosecuting witness was Sharon Yvonne Huffman, age 27, who lived with her parents and three sisters. On January
7, 1966, she worked as a receptionist and switchboard operator for the Y.M.C.A. in St. Joseph, Missouri. On Tuesday, January
21, 1966, she met appellant when he came to the "Y" for a room, which was provided him. From that time until Sharon went out
with him appellant came to the desk about every night, and on one occasion he brought her a bottle of Pepsi Cola. He then
asked her for a date on Wednesday night, June 29, 1966, and the initial arrangement was that he was to pick her up at 8 p.m.
after she attended church. Sharon on that evening drove her car to the church, but did not attend. She talked with a girl
friend and then met appellant at the church, leaving her car for her mother to pick up. Defendant had a 1964 Buick car, two-door
hardtop.
