Description
The defendant (appellant here), Robert Turney, was charged by information in the district court of Otero county, N. M., with the crime of involuntary manslaughter. The information contained two counts. The first count charging the killing of one Alejandro Montoya, who was traveling in a Chevrolet "pick-up" truck, which Turney struck while operating a Ford sedan. The first count charged Turney with operating his car in a wanton disregard of the rights and safety of others, and without due caution and circumspection. The second count charged Turney with driving the Ford while under the influence of intoxicating liquor. Turney was convicted under the first count, acquitted on the second, and was sentenced to from eighteen months to two years, from which sentence he appeals.
