Description
William Ramsey and George Guinan were separately indicted for the crime of rape, committed upon the person of the prosecuting witness, Mabel Irene Vance. On their respective trials each was found guilty, Ramsey receiving a sentence of fifteen years and Guinan a sentence of fourteen years. The appeals have been consolidated by agreement of counsel. A reversal is urged for the reasons: (1) that the lower court permitted the introduction of incompetent testimony on behalf of the Commonwealth; and (2) that the attorney for the Commonwealth was guilty of misconduct because he persistently propounded incompetent questions to the appellants and their witnesses. These grounds are so sufficiently interrelated they may be considered together, and it is unnecessary to detail more than the essential facts in order to dispose of them.
