Syllabus

The trial court did not err in imposing concurrent 60-month prison sentences on both of appellant's convictions for third-degree gross sexual imposition as the court properly considered the principles and purposes of felony sentencing under R.C. 2929.11 and the seriousness and recidivism factors of R.C. 2929.12. Appellant's sentence is not contrary to law and is supported by the record as there were multiple offenses that occurred over an extended period of time, the victim was a young child, appellant held position of trust as the victim's grandfather, and the victim suffered psychological harm as a result of appellant's actions.
