• 2021 Ohio 2938

Syllabus

The jury did not return inconsistent verdicts in finding McCallum not guilty of voluntary manslaughter under Count 1 of the indictment but guilty of voluntary manslaughter under Count 2 of the indictment. Moreover, the trial court did not err in denying McCallum's motion for funds for the assistance of an expert witness on battered woman syndrome, did not err in refusing to provide an instruction on self-defense and defense of another, did not abuse its discretion in its evidentiary rulings, and did not err in imposing McCallum's sentence, and McCallum did not receive the ineffective assistance of counsel. Judgment affirmed.
