  • 2020 Ohio 3314

Syllabus

The trial court's sentencing decision was not contrary to law where the record reflects the trial court considered the purposes and principles of sentencing under R.C. 2929.11 as well as the factors listed in R.C. 2929.12. In this case, appellant's lengthy criminal history and lack of remorse were factors considered in imposing the maximum sentence. The fact that the trial court chose to weigh various sentencing factors differently than how appellant would have weighed them does not mean the trial court erred in imposing sentence.
