Description
¶1 After her first trial, a jury convicted appellant Alice Jeffrey of four counts of disorderly conduct and one count of theft by control, but could not reach a verdict on four kidnapping charges. Following her second trial, a new jury convicted Jeffrey on all kidnapping counts. On appeal from the kidnapping convictions, Jeffrey challenges the trial court's refusal to instruct the jury that the state bore the burden of disproving her duress defense, its preclusion of testimony about an alleged suicide attempt by the person she claims forced her to commit the offenses, and its denial of a mistrial after the jury discovered a bullet that had not been admitted into evidence. We affirm.
