Summary

The Rhode Island Supreme Court affirmed the convictions for receiving stolen goods and conspiracy, holding that the trial judge correctly denied the defendants' motions for judgment of acquittal, the jury instructions on inferences and reasonable doubt were proper, and the trial judge did not abuse discretion in denying motions to pass the case or for a new trial. The court also remanded the record to the Superior Court.
