  2. Roberson v. State

    91 Okla. Crim. 217 (Okla. Crim. App. 1950)   Cited 14 times
    In Roberson v. State, 91 Okla. Cr. 217, 218 P.2d 414 (1950), the court held that the rule barring evidence of the defendant's character is absolute (unless she makes an issue of it), primarily because of a fear that such evidence, unrelated to the crime at issue, would give the accused too much to defend against, without adequate notice, and thus "in many instances, [would] provoke the conviction of the accused on general principles instead of on the issues involved in the particular case."

    For the above reason, the courts have universally recognized the above well-defined exceptions to the general rule that the state cannot prove against a defendant any crime not alleged, either as a foundation for a seperate punishment or as aiding the proofs that he is guilty of the one charged.

    Certainly, where the state charges a particular transportation of intoxicating liquors, it is error to admit proof of other facts which might tend to show the defendant guilty of a separate and distinct offense.
