Syllabus

Appellant's right to a speedy trial was not violated where appellant was brought to trial well before the 90-day time limit expired due to several tolling events following appellant's arrest, which included a motion for a continuance, as well as a request for discovery, an application for a bill of particulars, a motion for change of venue, a motion to suppress, and a motion to dismiss, all of which were properly charged against appellant. Appellant's conviction for felonious assault in violation of R.C. 2903.11(A)(2) was also supported by overwhelming, reliable, competent, and credible evidence where there was testimony from an eyewitness who identified appellant as the individual who shot the victim in the chest, as well as appellant's videotaped admission that he shot the victim.
