• 2021 Ohio 2544

Syllabus

Appellant's convictions were supported by sufficient evidence and were not against the manifest weight of the evidence where the state presented ample circumstantial evidence that appellant possessed and was trafficking drugs that were scattered along the path while he was attempting to run away from law enforcement. In addition, the trial court did not commit plain error in providing the jury with a complicity instruction even though appellant was charged as the principal offender where appellant's trial counsel raised an argument that his passenger could have been the responsible party.
