Kennedy v. State

1. The first contention made for appellant is that there was no showing of force used by defendant. Such contention is not borne out by the record. The prosecutrix testified to being struck by defendant; to her resistance; that she was kicking and crying; and that bruises resulted from the prosecutrix being struck. Other witnesses told of complaints by the prosecutrix; of her clothes being torn; of seeing the bruises and injuries. One of the witnesses who described her injuries was a physician who examined the prosecutrix.
