Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Bryan R. Huffman and Jere Mason, Covington, Tennessee, for the appellant, Corridirus Qualls.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Jeri K. Neff, Assistant Attorney General; Mark E. Davidson, District Attorney General; and Julie K. Pillow and Harrison Hight, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): EASTER

Defendant, Corridirus Qualls, was convicted of one count of first degree premeditated murder; two counts of attempted second degree murder; one count of reckless endangerment by discharging a firearm into an occupied habitation; two counts of employing a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony; two counts of aggravated assault; and one count of reckless endangerment. The trial court sentenced Defendant to a total effective sentence of life plus eighteen years. On appeal, Defendant argues that (1) the evidence was insufficient to support his convictions and (2) the trial court abused its discretion by imposing partial consecutive sentencing. After review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
