Description

BURKE, Justice. OPINION. Charles Wikstrom, appellant, pled nolo contendere to three counts contained in an indictment charging violations of AS 11.15.120. 1 The superior court imposed a fifteen year term of imprisonment on each count, to be served concurrently. 2 In this appeal Wikstrom contends that the court imposed an excessive sentence. 3 In the early morning hours of July 2, 1978, Wikstrom, a man in his early thirties, picked up an eighteen year old female hitchhiker. He transported her to the vicinity of her home, then requested that she continue to ride with him as he was alone and wanted company. When she agreed, Wikstrom drove to a remote location where he forced the young woman to submit to vaginal and anal intercourse, and to perform an act of fellatio. Wikstrom also choked the victim with his hands and, at one point, inserted some sort of metal device into her vagina. 4 Eventually the victim was able to summon aid and Wikstrom was arrested.
