State of Tennessee v. Robert Wilson

Case Number
M2004-00110-CCA-R3-CD

The defendant, Robert Wilson, was convicted of attempted aggravated sexual battery and rape of a child. The trial court imposed consecutive sentences of six years and twenty-five years, respectively. In this appeal, the defendant contends (1) that the evidence is insufficient to support the convictions; (2) that the evidence presented to the grand jury was insufficient to support the finding of the indictment; (3) that the state engaged in prosecutorial misconduct by failing to adequately respond to the motion for a bill of particulars; (4) that the state elicited and failed to correct false testimony in violation of his due process rights; (5) that the trial court failed to exercise its role as the thirteenth juror; and (6) that the sentence is excessive. The judgments of conviction are affirmed. The sentences are modified to four years and twenty-three years, respectively, and are to be served consecutively.
