NIELSEN v. STATE

Supreme Court of Alaska.
Dec 30, 1971
OPINION

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from a sentence of three years imprisonment, imposed after appellant's plea of guilty to the charge of assault with a dangerous weapon. Appellant, without substantial provocation, had repeatedly stabbed the victim with a butcher knife. Finding the sentence to be clearly nonexcessive in view of the violent nature of the crime charged, we affirm.
