Description
BROCK, J. The defendant had sexual intercourse with Vickie Jones, a female, who at the time was 10 years of age and who is the daughter of defendant's sister, Lillie Belle Jones. Based upon these facts of found by the jury, the defendant was convicted of two offenses, viz., aggravated rape, for which he received a sentence of 20 years in the penitentiary and incest for which he was sentenced to imprisonment of not less than five nor more than ten years in the penitentiary. The Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed his conviction and sentence for rape but reversed his conviction for incest and dismissed that count of the indictment. We granted the appeal of the State to consider its contention that the Court of Criminal Appeals erred in concluding that convictions for both aggravated rape and incest could not properly be allowed to stand, based, as they were, upon the single act of intercourse.
