Description
Dale Lyons ex-girlfriend, who had allowed him to stay at her residence, found Michael Courtney bludgeoned but still alive inside her home. The police located Lyon the next morning after he was assaulted by two individuals. Lyon agreed to go to the police station to give a statement regarding that mornings assault. After police detectives concluded the interview concerning that assault, they told Lyon that they thought he was involved in an assault on Courtney and that they thought Lyon might have struck Courtney in self-defense. Lyon admitted that he was involved in the assault on Courtney, was advised of his rights, and agreed to provide a tape-recorded statement. Lyon then told the detectives that he struck Courtney with a wooden closet rod. Courtney later died. Lyon was convicted of second degree murder. Lyon appeals, contending that he was entitled to an instruction for second degree assault as a lesser included crime, because there was evidence that another person caused Courtneys death after he left the apartment. We agree that Lyon was entitled to the instruction under the unusual facts of this case. We thus reverse and remand for a new trial.
