State v. Tweed

Defendant appeals his convictions for kidnapping in the second degree, ORS 163.225; assault in the fourth degree, ORS 163.160; menacing, ORS 163.190; and tampering with a witness, ORS 162.285. We reverse his conviction for tampering with a witness and affirm the other convictions without further discussion.

All of defendant’s convictions arise from conduct involving his former girlfriend, Hall. Because a jury convicted defendant of all the offenses, we recite the evidence in the light most favorable to the state. State v. Gibson, 338 Or 560, 562, 113 P3d 423, cert den, 126 S Ct 760 (2005).
