Description

On May 1, 1981, Alan Chase was indicted on charges of first-degree murder, first-degree sexual assault, arson, and other related charges in connection with the death of Dawn Klinkhart. Prior to and during the trial the defendant made three motions for change of venue, all of which were denied by Superior Court Judge Justin Ripley. In addition, Chase moved to suppress a statement which he made to Investigator Charles Miller, on the ground that it was given involuntarily. This motion was also denied. After a jury trial, Chase was found guilty on all counts. On April 21, 1982, Judge Ripley sentenced Chase to seventy-five years imprisonment. The defendant appeals Judge Ripleys denial of his motion to change venue and the motion to suppress his confession. He also argues that Judge Ripley erred in denying three of his challenges for cause of prospective jurors. We affirm.
