State s. Amanda Lee Sutton
E1999-00920-CCA-R3-CD
Authoring Judge: Judge Alan E. Glenn
Trial Court Judge: Stephen M. Bevil
The defendant, a former day care worker, pled guilty to Class D felony child abuse for breaking the jaw of a two-year-old child in her care. She was given a three-year sentence, to be served in split confinement, with six months in the county workhouse and four years of supervised probation. On appeal, the defendant raises the issues of whether the trial court erred in considering the age, vulnerability, and risk to the victim's life as a sentencing enhancement factor when the offense was already classified according to the age of the victim, and whether the trial court erred in failing to utilize alternative sentencing. Based upon our review, we affirm the decision of the trial court.

Authoring Judge: Judge David H. Welles
Trial Court Judge: Phyllis H. Miller
The Defendant was convicted of two counts of sexual battery. His plea agreement provided for concurrent sentences of two years for his convictions, with the manner of service of the sentences to be determined by the trial judge. The trial judge ordered that the Defendant serve 280 days of his sentences in the county jail, with the balance to be served on intensive probation. On appeal, the Defendant argues that the trial judge erred by ordering him to serve 280 days in jail. We modify the sentences imposed by the trial court.
