Case Synopsis
The Court determined that a district court must instruct the jury on voluntary manslaughter when requested by the defense so long as it is supported by any evidence unless the error was harmless. The Court also concluded that there was sufficient evidence in the case to support a verdict of child abuse, neglect and endangerment and affirmed the judgement.
