State of Tennessee v. Roger Dale Quillen

The appellant, Roger Dale Quillen, was convicted by a jury in the Criminal Court of Sullivan County of aggravated burglary, felony murder, premeditated first degree murder, and simple assault. The trial court merged the murder convictions and sentenced the appellant to an effective sentence of life imprisonment. On appeal, the appellant asserts that he established the affirmative defense of insanity by clear and convincing evidence and, therefore, he should have been found not guilty by reason of insanity. After a careful review of the record and the parties' briefs, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
