William Edward Arnold, Jr. v. State of Tennessee

Syllabus

The Petitioner, William Edward Arnold, Jr., appeals from the Davidson County Criminal Court's denial of post-conviction and error coram nobis relief from his convictions for one count of aggravated sexual battery and three counts of rape of a child, for which he received an effective sentence of twenty-five years. After a careful and laborious review of the entire record, we are compelled to reverse the denial of post-conviction relief. Accordingly, the Petitioner's convictions and sentences are reversed and vacated, and this case is remanded to the trial court for a new trial and for any necessary pre-trial motions.
