Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1:

Stephen C. Bush, District Public Defender; Barry W. Kuhn, Assistant Public Defender (on appeal); and E. Jane Sturdivant and Sanjeev Memula, Assistant Public Defenders (at trial), for the appellant, Marvin Davis.

Attorneys 2:

Robert E. Cooper, Jr., Attorney General & Reporter; J. Ross Dyer, Senior Counsel; Amy P. Weirich, District Attorney General; and Terre Fratesi and Abby Wallace, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): GLENN

A Shelby County jury convicted the defendant, Marvin Davis, of rape of a child, and the trial court sentenced him to twenty-five years at 100%. On appeal, the defendant contends that (1) the trial court erred in admitting the videotaped forensic interview of the victim; and (2) the evidence is insufficient to support his conviction. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
