State v. Storey
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of one count of assault with a dangerous weapon and one count of simple assault and battery. Defendant was sentenced to fifteen years imprisonment, with five years to serve and ten years suspended. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) the trial justice did not err by denying Defendant’s motions for judgment of acquittal and new trial, as the evidence was sufficient to support the verdict; (2) the trial justice did not err by not allowing Defendant to cross-examine the complaining witness concerning custody issues involving her sons; and (3) Defendant’s challenge to his sentence was not properly before the Court for review.
