State of Tennessee v. Izaiha Gleaves

Syllabus

The Appellant, Izaiha Gleaves, was convicted of second degree murder, attempted second degree murder, two counts of employment of a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony, aggravated assault, and tampering with evidence. The trial court imposed an effective sentence of forty-nine years' confinement. On appeal, the Appellant argues: (1) the evidence is insufficient to support his convictions (2) the trial court erred when it failed to excuse a juror who had a conflict of interest (3) the trial court erred when it admitted a redacted recording of a witness interview (4) the trial court's cumulative errors warrant reversal and (5) the trial court erred when it imposed an effective sentence of forty-nine years.1 After review, we affirm the trial court's judgments.
