Description
Among the assignments of error brought forward by defendant on this appeal is that directed to the following portion of the charge given by the court to the jury: "If the State has satisfied you beyond a reasonable doubt from the evidence that the defendant on the day in question, to wit, the third day of March, 1945, did forcibly take and carry away the person of the prosecuting witness, Mary Simmons, from her home some distance from her home, it would be your duty to return a verdict of guilty of kidnapping as charged in the bill of indictment." We think the exception to this charge is well taken in that the definition of the offense, as given, is not complete.
