Thornton v. State

SULLIVAN, Justice.

Defendant Anthony Thornton was found guilty of Murder for stabbing his wife to death. He appeals, arguing that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction. He also contends the trial court improperly excluded certain evidence that he says established the bias of a key State witness against him. Finding the evidence sufficient and no reversible error in the exclusion of evidence, we affirm.

We have jurisdiction over this direct appeal because the longest single sentence exceeds fifty years. Ind. Const, art. VII, § 4; Ind. Appellate Rule 4(A)(7).
