People V. Adler

The defendant, Edward S. Adler, was convicted of felony theft by receiving, section 18-4-410, C.R.S. 1973 (1978 Repl. Vol. 8), in connection with his purchase of a stereo receiver from an undercover policeman. He appealed from that conviction, raising issues concerning a variance between the date of the offense stated in the direct criminal information and the date proved at trial; the judge's conduct during the trial; the sufficiency of the entrapment defense; and the necessary elements of theft by receiving. We affirm the defendant's conviction.
