State of Tennessee v. Precious Briana Horton

Syllabus

A jury convicted the Defendant, Precious Briana Horton, of two counts of aggravated robbery, and the Defendant pleaded guilty to one count of theft of property valued under $500. The trial court sentenced the Defendant to eight years of incarceration. On appeal, the Defendant contends that: (1) the State exercised its preemptory challenges in a discriminatory manner (2) the trial court erred when it excluded testimony regarding the Defendant's mental health (3) the trial court prohibited her from offering to the jury her pretrial, out-of-court statement and (4) the evidence is insufficient to sustain one of her aggravated robbery convictions. After review, we affirm the trial court's judgments.

Judges: Judge Robert W. Wedemeyer
