Description

John Clark was convicted by a jury of robbery first degree, § 569.020 1, and was sentenced to thirty years imprisonment. He appeals his conviction on the grounds that the state improperly informed the jury that the other person involved in the robbery was his brother when in fact, his brothers had been acquitted of the charge one week before defendant's trial. We reverse and remand for new trial. On the evening of July 8, 1980, two armed men robbed the Ponderosa Steak House in Gladstone, Missouri. One of the two men carried a shotgun and the other a handgun. Defendant and his brother, William Clark, were arrested and charged with the robbery. One week before defendant's trial, William Clark was acquitted in a separate jury proceeding.
