Description

1 The defendant-appellant was tried before a jury in the district court of Oklahoma County and convicted of the crime of murder, and punishment was fixed by the jury at life imprisonment in the State penitentiary. Defendants defense was insanity at the time of the offense. The victim was his wife. The information charged that death was accomplished by use of hands and feet, by stomping and beating, resulting in the infliction of mortal wounds. The jury by reason of the verdict rejected defendants contention that he was insane at the time of the commission of the acts charged. Following the verdict, counsel filed a motion in arrest of judgment, alleging the then insanity of the defendant, whereupon the court on November 29, 1957 ordered defendant to the Eastern State Hospital, Vinita, Oklahoma, for observation not exceeding ninety days. Thereafter, on December 16, 1957 the court issued an order for the return of defendant from the hospital, based on a report of the medical staff that defendant was found to be without mental disorder. Following this, and on February 17, 1958 a jury was empanelled to try the sanity or insanity of the defendant, and the verdict of the jury was that he was sane. Thereupon defendants motion for new trial was heard and overruled and the court entered judgment in accordance with the verdict of the jury.
