WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Emmanuel Sanchez
Case No.: 2020AP387-CR
Officials: Dugan, Graham and Donald, JJ.
Focus: Jury Instructions
Emmanuel Sanchez appeals his judgment of conviction for first-degree intentional homicide and knowingly violating a domestic abuse injunction. Sanchez argues that the trial court erred in denying his request that the jury be given an instruction on second-degree reckless homicide. Assuming without deciding if the trial court erred in not giving the requested instruction, we conclude that any such error was harmless, and we affirm.
