State of Tennessee v. Denton Jones

Syllabus

The defendant, Denton Jones, appeals his Knox County Criminal Court jury conviction of theft of property valued at $1,000 or more, arguing that the State should not have been permitted to aggregate into a single count of theft the value of property taken on five separate occasions from two different locations that the trial court erred by permitting testimony concerning evidence that suggested the defendant had committed other offenses that the trial court erred by denying his motions for mistrial, including one based upon an alleged violation of Brady v. Maryland that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction and that the cumulative effect of the errors at trial entitle him to a new trial. Discerning no error, we affirm.

Judges: Judge James Curwood Witt, Jr.
