Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by This is an appeal in a criminal action from a jury verdict
finding Gwendolyn Cohen (defendant-appellant) guilty of felony
murder (K.S.A. 21-3401) by reason of aiding and abetting (K.S.A.
21-3205) in the crime of aggravated robbery (K.S.A. 21-3427). The
appellant raises two issues on appeal. She contends the trial
court erred in failing to require the State to disclose the
identity of confidential informants and in finding that there was
sufficient evidence to support the verdict of guilty. Late in the evening of October 16, 1979, the appellant left her
home after an argument with her husband. The appellant had been
drinking that evening and continued to drink with friends. The
appellant eventually ended up at a local restaurant, L.D. Fant's
Place, where she met "Mississippi Joe," a man later identified as
Nobles Shuford. After talking for a while, the two drove around
Kansas City, Kansas, went to Lawrence, Kansas, then returned to a
truck stop in Kansas City, Kansas, where they both had breakfast.
