Correy Robertson appeals from the judgments, following a jury trial, convicting him of two counts of battery and one count of bail jumping, all as a habitual criminal. Robertson argues that, under Wis. Stat. § 752.35, a new trial is warranted in the interest of justice “because the trial court and the State elicited testimony from the investigating officers in this matter vouching for the veracity of [the victim’s] statements to the officers while suggesting that [he] was untruthful, thereby preventing the real controversey [sic] from being fully tried.”
This court affirms.
This opinion will not be published.
