State of Tennessee v. Zina Beth Finnell

This is a direct appeal from a conviction of facilitation to commit felony murder. The defendant, Zina Beth Finnell, was indicted for felony murder by a Davidson County Grand Jury in connection with the murder of her step-father during the commission of an aggravated burglary. A jury convicted the defendant of facilitation to commit felony murder, and the trial court sentenced her to 21 years. On appeal, the defendant argues two issues: (1) the trial court erred in denying the defendant's motion to suppress her statement to the police, and (2) there was insufficient evidence to find the defendant guilty of facilitation to commit felony murder. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
