Parker v. Commonwealth , 291 S.W.3d 647 ( 2009 )


Menu:
  • VENTERS, Justice,

    concurring in result only:

    I concur with the majority on all points but one. The majority holds that an indictment is sufficiently specific if it simply “names the offense.” I disagree and respectfully submit that RCr 6.10(2), which *679was promulgated by this Court, requires that the indictment contain a statement of “the essential facts constituting the offense,” which is something more than simply naming the offense. I concur in result because the indictment in this case complies with RCr 6.10(2).
