State of Tennessee v. Bernard Keys

The Shelby County Grand Jury returned two indictments against the defendant, one for aggravated burglary and one for misdemeanor evading arrest. The trial court consolidated the indictments prior to trial pursuant to Tenn. R. Crim. P. 8(b). The defendant was found guilty of both charges by a Shelby County jury. In this appeal, the defendant contends (1) the evidence is insufficient to sustain his convictions; and (2) the trial court improperly consolidated the indictments. After a thorough review of the record, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
