Description
The defendant, Douglas Wayne Thompson, was tried in the Circuit Court of Bollinger County on change of venue from Cape Girardeau
County and was convicted by a jury of murder in the first degree. The court found that the defendant had been convicted of
a prior felony and fixed his punishment at death. The defendant's motion for new trial was overruled and he has appealed.
The victim of the homicide was Herbert L. Goss, a police officer of the City of Cape Girardeau, Missouri. In the trial court the defendant was represented by counsel who has also briefed the case in this court. In general the questions
presented for review are that the evidence was insufficient to justify submitting the charge of murder in the first degree
to the jury; that the jurors were permitted to separate during the trial; and that the state was permitted to cross-examine
the defendant on matters not brought out by his examination in chief.
