State v. Sowers

Citations

2019 Ohio 649

Syllabus

Appellant's actions in assaulting the victim, stopping the assault to compel her to shower, and then laying on top of her on the sofa and not letting her leave the residence were separate and identifiable acts committed with a separate animus. Thus, the trial court did not err when it refused to merge appellant's convictions for felonious assault and kidnapping. Judgment affirmed.

Judges: Donovan
