Description
This is an appeal from a judgment entered on a jury verdict which found appellant-defendant guilty of burglary and of auto theft in violation of §Â§ 6-7-201 and 31-11-102, W.S. 1977. Appellant contends: (1) that the evidence was insufficient as a matter of law to sustain the convictions inasmuch as the identification of appellant as the perpetrator of the crimes was defective; and (2) that the trial court erred in admitting testimony from one witness to the effect that appellant was made a suspect in the crimes because he had been involved "in similar situations before" with another person who was arrested for these crimes. Appellee-State contends that the evidence was sufficient to sustain the convictions and that appellants examination of this one witness "opened the door" for the questioned testimony.
