COLJI-Crim. D:05
ACCOMPLICE TESTIMONY—UNCORROBORATED
The prosecution has presented a witness who claims to have been a
participant with the defendant in the crime charged. There is no evidence
other than the testimony of this witness which tends to establish the
participation of the defendant in the crime.
While you may convict upon this testimony alone, you should act
upon it with great caution. Give it careful examination in the light of other
evidence in the case. You are not to convict upon this testimony alone,
unless you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that it is true.
