Supreme Court of Kansas

State v. Knapp

July 23, 2021490 P.3d 1228

Summary

The court affirmed Knapp's convictions and sentence. It assumed, without deciding, that some evidence may have been admitted in violation of the statute governing prior-crime evidence, but held any error harmless because the evidence of guilt was overwhelming. The court declined to review Knapp's hearsay challenge because he invited the alleged error by requesting and agreeing to the challenged statement, and it rejected his cumulative-error claim for the same harmlessness reason.
