• 2022 Ohio 4624

Syllabus

Following a bench trial, appellant was convicted of murder and other offenses. Inadmissible hearsay testimony was not admitted at trial and, as such, appellant's assertion that his right to confront witnesses was violated is without merit. The trial court did not improperly allow the State to determine the admissibility of purported hearsay testimony. The State presented sufficient evidence to sustain the convictions. Counsel did not provide ineffective assistance. Judgment affirmed.
