Description
THE COURT. An indictment containing three counts jointly charged the defendants Barzen Hoyt, Delmar Arnold, James Lacey, Arthur Frazier and Sylvio Tosi with conspiracy to commit robbery, robbery, and murder. Each was also charged with a prior conviction of felony. Demurrers were interposed alleging that more than one offense was charged, that it did not appear that the offenses were connected in their commission, and that they were not offenses of the same class. Upon motion, the indictment was permitted to be amended on its face by adding to counts two and three, "and said acts and crimes were connected together in their commission." Thereupon the demurrers were overruled, and to each count as amended the defendants pleaded not guilty. Hoyt, Lacey and Tosi also admitted a prior conviction as charged, but Arnold and Frazier denied the accusation. At the inception of the trial, Lacey changed his plea to one of guilty and testified as a witness for the prosecution. The jury found Hoyt, Arnold, Frazier and Tosi guilty as charged. Accordingly, they have been sentenced to imprisonment on the first and second counts, and to death on the third count, the verdict referable to the latter count being without recommendation. From the judgments and order denying a new trial they have prosecuted this appeal.
