State of Tennessee v. Tyler Hemmingway

The Defendant, Tyler Hemmingway, was convicted by a Shelby County Criminal Court
jury of aggravated sexual battery and sentenced by the trial court as a Range I, standard
offender to eight years at 100 percent in the Tennessee Department of Correction. On
appeal, the Defendant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence and argues that the trial
court abused its discretion by allowing the State to introduce a photograph of the
Defendant’s bedroom that showed a pornographic poster on the wall. Based on our review,
we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
