STATE of Louisiana v. David HENRY, Jr.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Fourth Circuit.

October 24, 2012.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Leon A. Cannizzaro, Jr. , District Attorney, Matthew C. Kirkham , Assistant District Attorney, New Orleans, LA, for Appellee/The State of Louisiana.

Bruce G. Whittaker , New Orleans, LA, for Defendant/Appellant.

(Court composed of Judge EDWIN A. LOMBARD, Judge MADELEINE M. LANDRIEU, Judge ROSEMARY LEDET).


ROSEMARY LEDET, Judge.

This is a criminal appeal. The defendant, David Henry, appeals his conviction and sentence for aggravated and forcible rape. The principal issue raised on appeal is whether the trial court erred in allowing the State to introduce evidence of a prior sex crime — a 1978 conviction for attempted aggravated rape — under La. C.E. art. 412.2. Finding no error, we affirm.
