Brown v. State

Indiana Supreme Court

1Opinion of the Court

BOEHM, Justice.

Jewan Brown was convicted of the murder of Michael Webster and conspiracy to commit that murder. He was sentenced to sixty-five years for the murder and thirty for the conspiracy to be served consecutively. Brown appeals, arguing that there is insufficient evidence to support his convictions and that his sentence is manifestly unreasonable. We affirm the convictions but, in light of Brown’s youth, remand with direction to impose concurrent sentences.
