The defendant, Dorothy Pryor, appeals the sentencing decision of the Sumner County Criminal Court. The defendant pled guilty to five counts of burglary and three counts of Class D felony theft. Pursuant to the plea agreement, she received an effective eight-year sentence for the burglary convictions and an effective eight-year sentence for the theft convictions. Following a sentencing hearing, the trial court ordered the burglary and theft sentences to be served consecutively to one another and consecutively to a prior eight-year sentence, for a total sentence of twenty-four years in the Department of Correction as a Range III, persistent offender. On appeal, the defendant argues that consecutive sentencing was improper. After a review of the record, we affirm the sentencing decision of the trial court.
