STATE OF TENNESSEE v. VINCENT TREDEAU MCCORD

Posted by: Azya Thornton on Sep 4, 2024

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Will Allensworth, Assistant Public Defender, Nashville, Tennessee (on appeal); Annie Berry and Casey Elliott, Assistant Public Defenders, Nashville, Tennessee (at trial), for the appellant, Vincent Tredeau McCord.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Benjamin A. Ball, Senior Assistant Attorney General; Glenn R. Funk, District Attorney General; and Addie Askew and Addison Rogers, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): DYER

The defendant, Vincent Tredeau McCord, was convicted of three counts of rape of a child, three counts of aggravated sexual battery, and one count of sexual exploitation of a minor by electronic means, and he was sentenced to an effective term of sixty years in the Tennessee Department of Correction. On appeal, the defendant argues that the evidence is insufficient to sustain his convictions and that the trial court erred in allowing testimony that the victim’s mother suffered a medical event that caused the loss of a pregnancy. Following a thorough review of the record, the briefs, and oral arguments of the parties, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
