Description

Appellants Carter and Burkhead were found guilty of sodomy, alleged to have occurred shortly after 11:00 p.m. in Carters automobile which was parked at the public rest and tourist information facility adjacent to Interstate Highway 70, where other parties had parked trucks, automobiles and campers. Appellants admit the evidence is sufficient to sustain the jury verdict, if our sodomy statute is constitutional as applied to them. Thus, it will be unnecessary for us to set out the sordid testimony about the act, which appeared so revolting to one of the two deputies sheriff, who stated they observed it while patrolling the area, that he vomited thrice during the evening - the first time as an immediate reaction to his seeing what was taking place in the automobile, and the others while appellants were in custody and being "booked." Although both appellants flatly denied that they had engaged in the homosexual act related by the police officers, they contend that even if they had done it, the states evidence only shows a consensual act in which two adult persons engaged. They were charged in the information on which they were tried with voluntary participation in an unnatural sex act in violation of Ark. Stat. Ann. 41-813 (Repl. 1964).
