Commonwealth v. Deeters

SPAETH, Judge:

Appellant, a juvenile, pleaded guilty to one count of burglary, 1 and was convicted and sentenced on one count of theft by unlawful taking, 2 and two counts of retail theft. 3 On this appeal he contends that the evidence was insufficient to support the convictions.

In deciding the sufficiency of evidence, we must first accept as true all the evidence upon which the trier of fact could properly have based the verdict, and then ask whether that evidence, with all reasonable inferences from it, was sufficient to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
