• 2019 Ohio 3692

Syllabus

Trial court did not err when it overruled appellant's motion to suppress. The evidence adduced at the second suppression hearing failed to establish that the hotel manager was acting as a state agent when she entered appellant's hotel room to confirm the housekeeper's observation of a gun and illegal drugs in the room. The trial court did not err when it refused to reconsider its decision overruling appellant's second motion to suppress. The trial court did not err when it overruled appellant's motion for a new trial because the appellant failed to adduce any independent evidence indicating that the jury's deliberative process was tainted in any fashion by juror misconduct. Judgment affirmed.
