STATE v. MURRAY

No. 18017.

375 S.E.2d 405 (1988)

STATE of West Virginia, Plaintiff Below, Appellee, v. Gary MURRAY, defendant Below, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia.

November 10, 1988.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David C. Smith, Johnston, Holroyd & Gibson, Princeton, for Gary Murray.

Charles G. Brown, III, Atty. Gen., for appellee.

MILLER, Justice:

The defendant, Gary Murray, was convicted in McDowell County Circuit Court of first degree sexual assault of a minor child. He contends that the court improperly admitted extrajudicial statements made by the child approximately two weeks after the assault. We find the admission of the statements to be erroneous and prejudicial, and reverse the conviction.
