Description
Quinton A. Russell was convicted of first degree sexual abuse (rape) pursuant to D.C. Code § 22-4102 (1996 Repl.), a new statute which became effective on the very day of the incident for which Russell was charged. In this appeal Russell contends that the trial court violated his due process rights by instructing the jury that he bore the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that the victim consented to the sexual act. Russell also contends that the trial court erred by failing to instruct the jury that it must consider any evidence relating to consent, regardless of whether he proved consent by a preponderance of the evidence, in deciding whether the government proved each element of the offense beyond a reasonable doubt.
