State of Tennessee v. Sean Angelo Davenport
Syllabus
A jury convicted Defendant, Sean Angelo Davenport, of first degree premeditated murder, and Defendant was sentenced to life. On appeal, Defendant argues that (1) the evidence was insufficient for a rational juror to have found him guilty of first degree premeditated murder (2) the trial court erred by instructing the jury on flight (3) the trial court erred by failing to give Defendant's requested jury instruction on spoliation (4) the trial court erred by admitting evidence of Defendant's prior bad acts and (5) the trial court erred by failing to order a mistrial when, during deliberations, the jury asked if Defendant had access to their personal information. After a thorough review of the facts and applicable case law, we affirm.
Judges: Judge Robert L. Holloway, Jr.
