Description

BURKE, Justice. OPINION. This is a sentence appeal, authorized by AS 12.55.120 and filed pursuant to former Rule 21, Alaska R. App. P. Appellant, Bill J. Bryant, contends that his thirty-five year sentence for second degree murder is excessive. 1 According to Bryant, the superior court misapplied the sentencing standards set forth in State v. Chaney, 477 P.2d 441, 443-44 (Alaska 1970), placing undue emphasis on the nature of the offense and too little emphasis on his potential for rehabilitation. See Alaska Const. art. I, § 12; Erwin, Five Years of Sentence Review in Alaska, 5 U.C.L.A. - Alaska L. Rev. 1 (1975). The murder took place in Fairbanks, Alaska, on June 6, 1979. The victim, Marion Wheat, along with his wife, Sharon, and five of their eight children, lived in a house owned by Bryant. The Wheats occupied the premises under the terms of a lease-purchase agreement. Bryant, however, still lived in one of the bedrooms of the house.
