““The purpose of a trial in a criminal case is to ascertain the truth of the matters charged against the defendant, and it is a part of the business of the trial judge to see that this end is attained. He is a vital and integral factor in the discovery and elucidation of the facts, and whenever in his judgment the attorneys are not accomplishing the full development of the truth it is not only his right but it is his duty to examine and cross-examine the witnesses. The presumption is that this liberty will be honorably and impartially exercised in the interest of justice, and in this case it was not abused by the trial judge.” (Syl. f 4.) (Emphasis supplied.)”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. State v. Wheeler“. . Misconduct of a juror is in the first instance a question for the trial court and when a motion for new trial is overruled it is thereby determined that the irregularity charged was not prejudicial to the substantial rights of the defendant. (State v. Lammon, 153 Kan. 822, 826 , 113 P. 2d 1052 .) Defendant fails to show that his substantial rights were so prejudiced by the conduct of this juror that a new trial should be granted.” (pp. 499, 500.)”
