Description
Defendant was found guilty by a jury of first degree murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. The case was submitted on
the felony murder doctrine, so no alternatives were submitted. This Court has jurisdiction under its order of April 9, 1973,
since the appeal was filed prior to that date. One James Lum, of Chinese extraction, operated a small carryout restaurant at 5082 North Union in St. Louis. On November
24, 1971, he was shot and killed in the course of an attempted robbery at his restaurant. A group of five or six youths was
involved. The actual shooting was done by one Edward Chew. The substantive testimony for the State came from Stanford Bell,
one of the participants, and from statements made by the defendant to police. Defendant sought, without success, to suppress
those statements, and no point is made on that subject here; nor does defendant contend that the evidence was insufficient
for submission. We may therefore omit many details of the evidence.
