Description
The defendant, Rolf A. Rosendahl, appeals from his conviction by a jury of the manufacture of a controlled substance, § 195.211, RSMo 1994, and sentence of fifteen years imprisonment. He also appeals the denial of his post-conviction motion following an evidentiary hearing. In his direct appeal, the defendant makes three arguments: first, he contends that the trial court erred in not declaring a mistrial sua sponte during closing argument when the prosecutor improperly defined reasonable doubt; second, he argues that the trial court erred in not dismissing the case because he was subjected to double jeopardy when certain items of personal property were seized pursuant to a civil forfeiture proceeding; and, third, he maintains that the trial court erred in allowing the admission of two bags of marijuana because there was a gap in the chain of custody, which destroyed the evidence's reliability. Finally, in his appeal from the denial of his Rule 29.15 motion, the defendant contends that his trial counsel was ineffective in not filing a motion for a speedy trial.
