State v. Spells

Citations

  • 2024 Ohio 6052

Syllabus

There was probable cause to support the issuance of search warrants related to appellant's DNA and his residence. His aggravated burglary conviction was supported by sufficient evidence, and the convictions for rape, attempted rape, and aggravated burglary were not against the weight of the evidence. The trial court did not err in failing to merge the offenses. The trial court did not err in imposing consecutive sentences, although it failed to include its findings about consecutive sentencing in the judgment entry. Judgment affirmed; the trial court is instructed to issue a nunc pro tunc order containing its findings on consecutive sentences.
