State v. Green

Citations

• 2020 Ohio 1552

Syllabus

Appellant was not denied effective representation at trial and his convictions for theft and misuse of a credit card were supported by sufficient evidence where the state demonstrated that appellant was the perpetrator of the offenses, that he broke into a locker at a fitness facility, stole the victim's wallet and credit card, and used the credit card to purchase gift cards and electronics at Target. The trial court did not err in permitting the state to introduce evidence of appellant's 2010 convictions for theft and possession of criminal tools where the evidence was relevant to show appellant's identity through his modus operandi.
