Wisconsin Court of Appeals

Criminal Procedure — joinder
Daniel Vega appeals a judgment convicting him of two counts of intentionally abusing thirteen-month-old L.M.T. The jury acquitted Vega of first-degree reckless homicide of L.M.T. for a separate incident. Vega contends the charges were improperly joined for trial and the court erroneously exercised its discretion when it denied his motion to sever the physical abuse charges from the homicide charge. We reject those arguments and affirm the judgment. This opinion will not be published.
