Syllabus

The trial court did not abuse its discretion by admitting biographical evidence appellant gave during a bond investigation because the information was not a statement taken during a bond proceeding and the information was not used as substantive evidence during appellant's trial. The trial court did not abuse its discretion by admitting a letter written by appellant to his wife where the letter is not testimony covered by the statutory spousal privilege of R.C. 2945.42. Appellant's conviction was supported by sufficient evidence and was not against the manifest weight of the evidence where a corrections officer observed appellant's fiancé place a package up her dress, the package contained suboxone, and appellant made arrangements the day before his fiancé's visit for her to bring the drugs to the prison.
