Description
PLAINTIFF in error, hereinafter referred to as defendant, was charged in a two-count information with murder by abortion. On the first, charging commission by an instrument, the verdict was guilty; on the second, charging commission by noxious drugs, not guilty. He was sentenced to from ten to twelve years in the state penitentiary. To review that judgment he prosecutes this writ. The twenty-three assignments are thus grouped and presented in the briefs and will be so considered, altering only the order: Error in 1. The admission of certain evidence relating to Exhibit B. 2. The admission of Exhibit B. 3. Permitting a witness to exonerate himself. 4. Excusing a witness for testifying on the ground of self incrimination. 5. Pemitting witnesses for the people to impeach themselves and each other. 6. The giving of instruction No. 8, and, 7. The entry of a judgment unsupported by evidence. A brief statement of facts is essential to an understanding of each of these and our conclusions thereon.
