State v. Burnett

• 2025 Ohio 1836

Syllabus

Insufficient evidence; identity. Judgment reversed, conviction vacated, and defendant discharged. Our review of the record reveals that the State presented insufficient evidence that the defendant perpetrated the crimes charged. Viewing the evidence in a light most favorable to the prosecution, we cannot say that any rational trier of fact could have found that the defendant's identity was proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
