Description

BOOCHEVER, Chief Justice. OPINION. James W. Aldridge appeals from his conviction for selling heroin in violation of AS 17.10.010. Three specifications of error are alleged: (1) That the admission into evidence of a tape recording of conversations by the defendant, in his home, which were transmitted by a small microphone hidden on the state's witness, James Blair, and which was made without benefit of a search warrant or the defendant's consent, violated his rights under the fourth amendment to the United States Constitution and art. I, § 22 of the Alaska Constitution; (2) That the superior court erred in denying his motions for mistrial based on certain allegedly prejudicial statements made by the state's witnesses; and (3) That his sentence of five years is excessive.
