State of Tennessee v. Carlos Monte Waters and Laraiel J. Winton

The defendants appeal their convictions for especially aggravated kidnapping and attempted aggravated robbery, as well as their twenty-five-year sentences. They claim there was insufficient evidence to support their convictions for kidnapping, the statutes upon which they were convicted are unconstitutional, they were denied a speedy trial, their trial counsel was ineffective, and their sentences are excessive. Winton contends that he had a plea agreement with the State and the prosecution committed prosecutorial misconduct by changing the terms of that agreement. After careful review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
