Description
In an information filed against defendant, August H. Gensmer, Jr., he was charged with a violation of M.S.A. 613.05, which
covers the offense of asking and agreeing to receive a bribe. Defendant was a member of the board of county commissioners
of Winona county. The information charges that defendant, while a member of the county board, asked and agreed to receive
$300 as a bribe from one John W. Yaeger upon an agreement between them that defendant's vote, opinion, and action as a member
of the board would be corruptly influenced thereby. To the information filed against him, defendant entered a plea of not
guilty. He was tried and found guilty. From an order denying his motion to set aside the verdict and discharge defendant,
or, if that be refused, for a new trial, he appeals. Prior to the filing of the information, an investigation into the affairs of the county board of Winona county was carried
on by the state public examiner's office. Karl A. Nuerenberg represented the office in carrying on the investigation. In a
hotel room in Winona, Nuerenberg took a statement from defendant by means of a recording machine. The statement was transcribed.
Before the statement was taken, defendant signed a waiver of immunity.
