Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Aug 6, 2024
STATE OF MISSOURI, Respondent v. CHRISTOPHER A. CREVISTON, Appellant
Christopher A. Creviston appealed his convictions for statutory sodomy in the first degree and child molestation in the third degree following a jury trial. He challenged the trial court's failure to intervene during the State's closing argument and voir dire, and an allegedly erroneous jury instruction regarding unanimity in a multiple acts case. The appellate court affirmed the judgment, denying all three points relied on, primarily finding the claims either waived or failing to demonstrate plain error or manifest injustice.
