State vs. Joseph Wilson

A Madison County jury found the defendant guilty of three counts of aggravated rape and one count each of attempted second degree murder, especially aggravated robbery, especially aggravated burglary, conspiracy to commit aggravated burglary, and misdemeanor vandalism. In this appeal, the defendant argues: (1) the evidence is insufficient to support his convictions; (2) certain photographs of the victim's injuries were improperly admitted; (3) evidence that the defendant committed a subsequent burglary was improperly admitted; and (4) the trial court erred in failing to charge the jury as to simple rape as a lesser-included offense of aggravated rape. We affirm the judgments of the trial court.
