Alaska Crim.R. 31(c) authorizes a jury to convict a defendant of any lesser offense which is "necessarily included in the offense charged."1 The question in this case is whether a jury may also convict a defendant of offenses which are related to the crime charged, but which are not necessarily included therein. We answer this question in the negative.
