Posted by: Azya Thornton on Sep 29, 2025

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Gerald S. Green (on appeal); John Dolan (at trial), Memphis, Tennessee, for the appellant, Romeaka Contrell Evans.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; G. Kirby May, Assistant Attorney General; Steven J. Mulroy, District Attorney General; and Monica Timmerman and Katie Ratton, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): EASTER

Romeaka Evans, Defendant, was indicted by a Shelby County Grand Jury for second degree murder. After a jury trial, she was convicted as charged and sentenced to twenty- five years in incarceration as a Range I, standard offender. The trial court denied a motion for new trial, and Defendant appealed, arguing that the trial court improperly denied a mistrial, that the evidence was insufficient, and that the trial court imposed an improper sentence. After review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
