STATE OF TENNESSEE V. DONALD JOSEPH POWELL

Posted by: Tanja Trezise on Jun 8, 2015

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1:

Georgia Felner (on appeal) and Drew Justice (at trial), Franklin, Tennessee, for the appellant, Donald Joseph Powell.

Attorneys 2:

Herbert H. Slatery III, Attorney General and Reporter; Andrew C. Coulam, Assistant Attorney General; Kim R. Helper, District Attorney General; Tammy Rettig, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): EASTER

Defendant, Donald Joseph Powell, was convicted at a bench trial of attempted aggravated burglary. On appeal, he argues that the trial court erred in admitting evidence of prior aggravated burglaries committed by Defendant and that the testimony of his co-defendant was not sufficiently corroborated to sustain a verdict of guilt. Upon thorough review of the record, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
