Description
The defendant, Thomas F. Hoppe, was found guilty of murder in the second degree of Lynn Westbrook and the attempted first-degree murder of Mary Jans. Hoppe was sentenced to ten years for the attempted first-degree murder and twenty years for the second-degree murder, with the terms to be served consecutively. On this appeal Hoppe contends that he was deprived of his constitutional right to a fair trial, because the trial Judge improperly denied his motion for change of venue because of community prejudice, that there was insufficient credible evidence to support the convictions, that prosecutorial misconduct by the district attorney during the course of trial denied him due process, and that, because of cumulative errors, he should be granted a new trial in the interest of Justice. In respect to each of these contentions we conclude that they are without merit and affirm the judgment.
