State of Tennessee v. Michael Freeman
Syllabus
The Defendant, Michael Freeman, appeals his second degree murder conviction, alleging that (1) the trial court improperly denied his motion to suppress his police statement because he made an unequivocal request for a lawyer (2) that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction and (3) that the trial court erred by issuing a flight instruction to the jury.1 Following our review of the record and the applicable authorities, we conclude that the Defendant's issues do not entitle him to relief. Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
Judges: Judge D. Kelly Thomas, Jr.
