Description
HERRMANN, Chief Justice: The defendant, William D. Burton, was found guilty of two counts of rape in the second degree, 11 Del.C. § 763, 1 and one count of kidnapping in the first degree, 11 Del.C. § 783A(4). 2 He received a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment for the kidnapping, to be served consecutively with two ten-year terms for the rape convictions. The main ground of this appeal is the contention that it is unjust and unlawful to convict and punish the defendant for both rape and kidnapping on the facts of this case.
