Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Judge(s): DYER

A Davidson County jury convicted the defendant, Alexander Friedmann, of vandalism of property over $250,000, for which he received a sentence of forty years in confinement at 35%. On appeal, the defendant contends (1) the indictment is unconstitutionally vague and overbroad; (2) the trial court erred in admitting evidence of the costs to rekey the jail and review surveillance footage; (3) the trial court erred in denying a motion to suppress the product of a judicial subpoena; (4) the evidence presented at trial was insufficient to support his conviction; (5) the State failed to timely provide evidence to which the defendant was entitled; (6) improper argument by the State affected the verdict; (7) the trial court imposed an excessive sentence; (8) the trial court erred in denying the defendant’s motion for a reduced sentence; and (9) cumulative error deprived the defendant of a fair trial. After reviewing the record and considering the applicable law, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
