Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the refusal to hear the defendant's wife as a witness was arbitrary
Extrahierter Entscheid
The appellate court could, in anticipatory assessment of evidence, consider the proposed testimony immaterial; no arbitrariness was shown.
Extrahierte Begründung
Even if the wife confirmed the victim's account, it would hurt the defendant; if she denied it, it would not help him because the appellate court already assumed he behaved properly in her presence.
