Syllabus

Defendant-appellant was convicted by a jury of the crimes of felonious assault and tampering with evidence. The State of Ohio, as to the felonious assault count, presented sufficient evidence to establish venue beyond a reasonable doubt, and the jury's determination on this issue is not against the manifest weight of the evidence. Further, Defendant-appellant's convictions are supported by sufficient evidence and they are not against the manifest weight of the evidence. The State did not engage in prosecutorial misconduct, and trial counsel was not ineffective. The record does not clearly and convincingly support a finding that Defendant-appellant's sentence is either contrary to law or that the record does not support the trial court's statutory findings. Finally, since we found no error, the cumulative error doctrine is not applicable. Judgment affirmed. (Froelich, J., concurring in judgment only.)
