Description:

Topeka, KS criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with 98 counts of various sex offenses, including 50 counts of rape, 10 counts of aggravated criminal sodomy, 8 counts

of aggravated indecent liberties with a child, and 30 counts of sexual exploitation of a child.

Outcome:

The record is clear. By Conkling's own admissions, he was over 18 years old when he committed his crimes. The district court's finding that Conkling was over the age of 18 when he committed his crimes did not violate Apprendi. As such, we find it unnecessary to reach the State's alternative argument of harmless error.



Affirmed
