Thus, each of the two bullets that penetrated Mrs. Brown would comport with each of the two guilty verdicts that the jury rendered. See Hill v. State, 314 Ark. The majority states: [A]n accused may be charged and prosecuted for different criminal offenses, even though one offense is a lesser-included offense, or an underlying offense, of another offense However, a defendant so charged cannot be convicted of both the greater and the lesser offenses.

Unless it is determined that a terroristic act was not meant to be a separate, chargeable offense, it is foreseeable that a prosecutor could elect to charge a defendant with committing a terroristic act and murder, or a lesser-included offense thereof. 153, 165, 931 S.W.2d 417, 425 (1996) (stating, Given the clear legislative intent expressed in section 5-54-125(b) that fleeing is to be considered a separate offense, we have no doubt in concluding that the Double Jeopardy Clause does not bar Appellant's trial or punishment therefor.). See id. (2)Upon conviction, any person who commits a terroristic act is guilty of a Class Y felony if the person with the purpose of causing physical injury to another person causes serious physical injury or death to any person. Thus, the prohibition against double jeopardy was not violated in this case. That the majority opinion relies upon McLennan while so clearly recognizing that the appellant in this case has been not been charged with multiple counts of the same offense demonstrates the extraordinary lengths taken to justify a result I consider troublesome and unfair.

While Hill may stand for the unremarkable proposition that the trial court may allow the prosecution to proceed on both charges and is not required to limit the conviction to the greater offense until the jury returns with verdicts on both charges, it does not support the majority's position that appellant's double jeopardy argument is procedurally barred because he did not wait until the jury returned both verdicts to move the trial court to limit the conviction to only one charge. We disagree because the State, in both its opening and closing statements, told the jury that it intended to prove, and did prove, that Mr. Brown fired multiple shots at Mrs. Brown's van and that Mrs. Brown was personally hit twice. The Supreme Court has stated, Because the substantive power to prescribe crimes and determine punishments is vested with the legislature, the question under the Double Jeopardy Clause [of] whether punishments are multiple is essentially one of legislative intent[. 219, 640 S.W.2d 440 (1982); compare State v.

It appears that appellant presumes that the only finding that could reasonably be reached from the evidence was that Mrs. Brown was shot only once. Second-degree battery may be proved by means other than purposefully causing serious physical injury, i.e., by recklessly causing serious physical injury to another person by means of a deadly weapon. 33, 13 S.W.3d 904 (2000), I would reverse appellant's conviction on the ground that his prosecution for both offenses constituted double jeopardy. The evidence at trial indicated that Hobbs sold methamphetamine to an informant, which led to a search warrant at her residence in February of 2018. 1. This language suggests that the legislature intended to provide enhanced sentencing for such conduct comprising a terroristic act alone, not provide separate punishment for conduct comprising both a terroristic act and second-degree battery. 419, 931 S.W.2d 64 (1996). Appellant moved for a directed verdict only on the ground that there was insufficient proof of serious physical injury and did not address the remaining elements under the second-degree battery statute. Each of appellant's shots required a separate conscious act or impulse in pulling the trigger and is accordingly punishable as a separate offense. The difference between the offenses is based upon the degree of risk or risk of injury to person or property, or else upon grades of intent or degrees of culpability. He was charged with first-degree battery, a Class B felony (count 1), and committing a terroristic act, a Class Y felony (count 2), with regard to Shirley Brown.1. Therefore, we hold that his challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence is not preserved for appeal. At the conclusion of the evidence, appellant's attorney renewed his plea to the trial judge: We would move to dismiss, again and renew our motion stating that the terroristic act, the count describing the terroristic act, is a duplicate or duplicative of the first degree battery charges in-on the facts of this case; that in effect we are trying this man, we would be submitting it to the jury on two counts that would require the same identical facts for a conviction. 2 0 obj The majority opinion lowers that floor with regard to the right against double jeopardy and reduces the protection against double jeopardy to a mere legal fiction because it allows the State to punish a person under two different statutes for the same conduct, absent a clear legislative rationale for doing so.

The majority opinion purports to address appellant's double jeopardy argument by a reasoning process that is as fanciful as it is convoluted. The second guilty verdict of the week was returned on Friday morning. First-degree battery requires proof of purposefully causing serious physical injury to another by means of a deadly weapon. Each of the defendant McLennan's shots required a separate conscious act or impulse in pulling the trigger and was, accordingly, punishable as a separate act. 258, 268, 975 S.W.2d 88, 93 (1998). Thus, the prohibition against double jeopardy was not violated in this case. Nothing in the McLennan opinion supports that notion, nor does the majority opinion offer any other authority for it. The majority's reasoning in this regard is untenable for at least two reasons. at 89, 987 S.W.2d 668. <> See Akins v. State, 278 Ark.
