Description
Jerry Ward Shive appeals the judgment of the Circuit Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County in which be was convicted of the crime of gratification of lust and sentenced to serve a term of eight years in the Mississippi Department of Correction, with five years suspended on supervised probation. As error he assigns the trial judges failure to allow him to amend his indictment to read a lesser charge of simple assault; the states failure to prove his intent to gratify his lust or indulge his depraved, licentious sexual desires; and finally that the verdict of the jury was contrary to the overwhelming weight of the evidence.
