“I suggest that the committee on criminal jury instructions propose an instruction which would advise the jury that when counts involving legally interlocking charges are involved, the jury should first consider the predicate offense and should it find such offense not proved beyond a reasonable doubt, it should acquit also on the compound felony. On the other hand, if the predicate offense is sufficiently proved, then the jury should be instructed to consider the count alleging the compound felony.”
