Description

Appellant Paul Waller appeals from convictions of voluntary manslaughter, § 565.023.1(1), RSMo 1986, and armed criminal action, § 571.015, RSMo 1986. Following the holding of State v. Buckles, 636 S.W.2d 914, 922 (Mo. banc 1982), and cases cited therein, the Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District, affirmed the judgment. Buckles reaffirms the rule prohibiting admission of evidence of the victims prior acts of violence, known to the defendant at the time of the incident, to support defendants assertion that he acted justifiably in reasonable apprehension of bodily harm. After affirming the judgment, the court transferred the case to this Court for reexamination of the law. Today this Court abrogates the holding of Buckles, reverses the judgment, and remands the case for new trial.
