Description
Jasper Earl Sanders was tried by jury and was found guilty of aggravated assault, recklessly endangering another person and carrying a firearm without a license. Post-trial motions were denied, and Sanders was sentenced to serve consecutive terms of imprisonment for not less than three (3) years nor more than ten (10) years for aggravated assault and not less than one (1) year nor more than five (5) years for carrying a firearm without a license. Thereafter, a direct appeal was filed in which appellant argued that: (1) the evidence was insufficient to sustain the conviction for aggravated assault; (2) the finding of guilt on the charge of aggravated assault was contrary to the weight of the evidence; and (3) the trial court abused its discretion by imposing a sentence in the aggravated range of the sentencing guidelines without stating adequate reasons for doing so.
