State of Tennessee v. Martavious D. Brooks and Brittany G. Lee
Syllabus
A Montgomery County jury convicted the Defendants, Martavious D. Brooks and Brittany G. Lee, of theft of property valued over $10,000, and it also convicted Defendant Lee of aggravated robbery. The trial court sentenced Defendant Brooks as a Range II, multiple offender to ten years in prison. The trial court merged Defendant Lee's convictions and sentenced her to nine years in prison, at 85%, for the aggravated robbery conviction. On appeal, Defendant Lee contends that the evidence is insufficient to sustain her convictions and that the trial court improperly limited her cross-examination of a witness. Defendant Brooks contends that the evidence is insufficient to sustain his conviction for theft. After review, we affirm the trial court's judgments.
