State of Tennessee v. Dwayne Scott Franklin

Syllabus

A jury convicted the Defendant, Dwayne Scott Franklin, of three counts of rape of a child, a Class A felony. The trial court imposed sentences of twenty-five, thirty, and thirty-five years in prison for the crimes, and the sentences were ordered to run partially consecutively for an aggregate sentence of sixty years. The Defendant appeals, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence, the State's alleged failure to preserve evidence, and sentencing. After a thorough review of the record, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
