P. v. Aaron CA1/4
Appellant, Jerit Devon Aaron, was charged with, among other things, robbery, sexual assault, attempted first degree burglary, first degree burglary, and two counts of dissuading a witness. The cases were consolidated, and Aaron was convicted of all the charges. He argues that the crimes were of a different class and that the consolidation denied him a fair trial. Aaron also moved for acquittal on the first degree burglary and attempted first degree burglary charges, and both counts of dissuading a witness. He contends it was error for the trial court to deny his motion for acquittal. For the reasons stated below, we find that consolidation of the cases was proper, the trial court did not abuse its discretion, and sufficient evidence supported Aaron’s convictions for first degree burglary, attempted first degree burglary, and the two counts of dissuading a witness.
