The verdict was amply supported by the evidence, the charge was in accordance with applicable statutes, the ‍‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​‍statutes are constitutional, there was no error, and the trial court did not err in refusing to grant a ‍‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​‍new trial.
