State v. Daniel E. Doyle, Jr.

Syllabus

The defendant, Daniel Doyle, appealed from a judgment of conviction following jury verdicts of guilty on eighteen counts of financial fraud offenses under the Rhode Island General Laws. The case arose from the defendant's long-term tenure as executive director of the Institute for International Sport, a Rhode Island nonprofit corporation that was well-known for hosting the \World Scholar-Athlete Games\ during the 1990s and 2000s. The defendant's conviction included being found guilty of embezzling hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Institute for International Sport during his tenure as executive director. The defendant raised eight issues on appeal, and the Supreme Court addressed each of them. The Court held that none of the issues he raised had merit and that most were not properly preserved for appellate review. Accordingly, the Court affirmed the judgment of conviction.
