State v. James M. Brown

Syllabus

James M. Brown appeals his conviction and sentence for murder. He argues the trial court erred in not suppressing evidence seized pursuant to a search warrant obtained for his cell phone records. He contends the search-warrant affidavit was overbroad and vague. He asserts the affidavit contained one specific allegation and the State stipulated that allegation was false. He also maintains the trial court erred in denying his motion for a directed verdict because no direct or substantial circumstantial evidence that he committed an overt act was presented to support the State's accomplice liability theory. We affirm.
