• 2024 Ohio 4722

Syllabus

Per Mayle, J., defendant's convictions of improperly handling firearm in motor vehicle and having weapons while under disability affirmed. State was not required to present evidence that defendant owned vehicle, firearm, or diaper bag where gun was found. State was permitted to prove elements of offenses with circumstantial evidence. It presented evidence that defendant knew gun was in vehicle and gun was accessible to him. This is not exceptional case where evidence weighs heavily against conviction.
