State of Tennessee v. Shelby Isaac - Concur

Syllabus

I concur with the majority opinion, but am writing separately in order to explain my analysis of why the evidence is sufficient beyond a reasonable doubt to sustain Defendant's conviction for criminally negligent homicide of the unborn child of Ms. Thomas. I must admit that initially I was skeptical that the evidence was sufficient to support the conviction in light of the specific facts of this case as they applied to the statutory definition of \criminal negligence\ set forth in T.C.A. § 39-11-106(a)(5) (Supp. 2019).
