1Opinion of the Court

MAXWELL, J.,

for the Court.

¶ 1. Fonshanta Anthony was convicted in Marshall County Circuit Court of felony child abuse and sentenced to twenty years’ imprisonment in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC). On appeal, Anthony argues: (1) the circuit court erred in admitting a medical report entitled “Abuse/Neglect Risk Factor Assessment” (abuse record); (2) the evidence was insufficient as a matter of law to sustain her conviction of felony child abuse; and (3) the verdict is against the overwhelming weight of the evidence.

¶ 2. Finding no reversible error, we affirm.
