Description
A jury found defendant-appellant Sam Jacobs guilty of arson in the second degree in violation of Neb. Rev. Stat. § 28-503 (Reissue 1985), and of criminal mischief in violation of Neb. Rev. Stat. § 28-519 (Reissue 1985). The same jury found Sam Jacobs' son, defendant-appellant Ryan Jacobs, guilty of second degree arson. In accordance with the jury's verdicts, the district court adJudged each defendant guilty and sentenced Sam Jacobs to probation for a period of 3 years on the arson conviction and imposed a $250 fine on the criminal mischief conviction. Ryan Jacobs was sentenced to 3 years' probation. On appeal to this court each defendant assigns as errors the trial court's (1) failure to sustain the plea in abatement made by each defendant, (2) failure to grant a change of venue to each defendant, (3) admission of testimony concerning Sam Jacobs' prior conduct, (4) failure to grant a mistrial, and (5) failure to find the evidence insufficient to support the jury's findings of guilt. We affirm. On Friday evening, August 2, 1985, Sam Jacobs got into a fight with Clinton Wreszinski and Kevin Lukasiewicz. Sam Jacobs sustained some facial cuts, was treated at a hospital, and wanted charges brought against Wreszinski and Lukasiewicz. William Steele, a policeman for the city of St. Paul, located in Howard County, told Sam Jacobs that after the police finished gathering information on the fight, they would turn the matter over to the county attorney, who would decide if there was a basis upon which to press charges.
