Description
The trial judge instructed the jury in substance that consent was not a defense to the crime charged; that if the jury found Strong had willingly permitted the defendant to insert his penis for sexual purposes into his anus, then Strong would be a participant and an accomplice; and that if Strong was an accomplice, then the jury must carefully scrutinize his testimony. The defendant assigns as error this portion of the charge contending that there was no evidence of consent on the part of Strong, and that it was prejudicial to defendants in that ""it tended to give to Strong's testimony a greater ring of veracity.""
