State of Tennessee v. Shundarius Turner

Syllabus

Defendant, Shundarius Turner, was convicted by a jury of reckless homicide, especially aggravated robbery, aggravated criminal trespass, aggravated assault, and reckless endangerment. He received a total effective sentence of thirty-seven years, eleven months, and twenty-nine days. On appeal, he claims the trial court erred in excluding a photographic lineup where he was not identified by one of the victims, the evidence was insufficient to support his felony convictions, the trial court's sentencing decision violated his Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights, the trial court erred in excluding a witness from testifying on his behalf, the trial court erred in denying his right to strike a juror for cause, and the cumulative effect of these errors denied him a fair trial. Following our review of the entire record, the briefs, and oral arguments of the parties, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
