P. v. Burris CA2/7
A jury convicted Tyrrell Burris of multiple crimes related to his assault of two women in their homes. On appeal he contends the prosecutor engaged in prejudicial misconduct during closing argument, his lawyer’s failure to object to many of the prosecutor’s misstatements deprived him of the effective assistance of counsel, the evidence is insufficient to support his conviction for aggravated kidnapping, he improperly suffered convictions for different statements of the same offense and it was error to order he pay restitution to one of his two victims. We agree two of Burris’s burglary convictions must be dismissed as duplicative and the restitution order was imposed in error. In all other respects we affirm the judgment.
