Syllabus

In the context of a bench trial, appellant failed to establish plain error in the trial judge's decision to allow a witness to testify regarding appellant's state of mind, where defense counsel failed to object to the question asked, the judge did not mention this testimony when explaining the guilty finding, and logical inferences from the other evidence of record established beyond a reasonable doubt all of the necessary elements of the retaliation offense. Judgments affirmed.
