Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily assessed the evidence and violated in dubio pro reo regarding the June 15, 2000 telephone call.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No constitutional violation was shown; the cantonal findings that the accused implicitly demanded money were sustainable.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court held that the witness could hear the call, that his employment by the victim did not make his testimony inherently unreliable, and that the absence of an explicit monetary demand did not exclude an implicit one.
