Description
The defendant, Steven R. Redman, was charged in the circuit court of Sangamon County with the offenses of rape, deviate sexual assault and armed robbery. He was tried by a jury, convicted on all three charges, and appeals. He contends on appeal that (1) he was not proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt; (2) the trial court erred by allowing the States expert witness to testify that less than two percent of Caucasians displayed biochemical characteristics such as those of the defendant and those shown by an analysis of a sample of a semen stain taken from the back seat of the victims car; (3) the State committed reversible error by failing to complete purported impeachment of the defendant; and (4) the trial court erred in prohibiting defendant from introducing evidence that the victim tested positive for oral gonorrhea following the attack.
