Description

Appellant submits that the imposition of eleven concurrent sentences of imprisonment from thirty years to life for a man of his age, 29, is excessive and "amounts to nothing less than a death sentence for him," contra to the United States Supreme Court ruling in Coker v. Georgia, 433 U.S. 584, 97 S.Ct. 2861, 53 L.Ed.2d 982 (1977). There, the Court held that the imposition of a sentence of death for the rape of an adult woman is excessive and violates the eighth and fourteenth amendments. We first mention that we are not dealing with a death sentence because appellant is serving 30 years with a possibility of life imprisonment. This is manifestly a different punishment as distinguished by the Court in Coker.
