Where defendant signed a jury waiver in open court in the presence of his counsel and upon the court's questioning, informed the court that he wished to waive a jury trial, the trial court's colloquy was sufficient to establish that the defendant knowingly and voluntarily waived his right to a jury trial defendant's convictions were supported by sufficient evidence and were not against the manifest weight of the evidence where all four victims gave similar descriptions of the defendant, and when he was apprehended, he was driving a vehicle stolen from one of the victims and items stolen from an earlier victim were found in the glove compartment of the vehicle where the defendant stipulated to his juvenile offenses that would establish a disability under R.C. 2923.13(A)(2), the trial court erred in allowing testimony regarding the defendant's juvenile offenses and the admission of the juvenile court's journal entries regarding those offenses.
