Publisher Description
Appellant, Thomas G. Phillips ("Phillips"), appeals from the judgment of conviction and order of commitment of the district court. Phillips was charged with and convicted of one count of sexual abuse of a minor under the age of sixteen, in violation of I.C. § 18-1506. For this conviction, the court sentenced Phillips to a determinate term of fifteen years in prison. On appeal, Phillips argues that the district court erred by allowing the State to adduce testimony of "other crimes;" by rejecting his proposed jury instruction regarding evidence susceptible of different constructions or interpretations; and in sentencing him to a determinate fifteen year prison term. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm the decision of the district court.
