Description

Ronnie William Jackson and Joseph Henry Claybrooks (collectively appellants) appeal pursuant to T.R.A.P. 3(b) from a judgment of the Circuit Court at Williamson County on a jury verdict. Claybrooks was convicted of aggravated robbery pursuant to T.C.A. 39-13-402 (1991). Jackson was convicted of aggravated robbery pursuant to T.C.A. 39-11-402(2)(1991), the vehicle through which a person may be held criminally responsible for an offense committed by the conduct of another. Following a sentencing hearing, the court sentenced both Jackson and Claybrooks to ten (10) years in the Department of Correction. Appellants raise issues concerning the sufficiency of the convicting evidence and the trial court's application of enhancement and mitigation factors at the sentencing hearing. For the reasons stated herein, we affirm the judgment of the trial court on the convictions and respectfully affirm the judgment as modified by this opinion on the sentencing. Because appellants' issue concerning the sufficiency of the convicting evidence is legally flawed, we need only present a review of the evidence necessary to establish the basic facts of this case. At trial, the state presented evidence from which the jury could have concluded that Claybrooks robbed First Tennessee bank teller, Karen Durfey, at gunpoint. Durfey testified that on April 6, 1993, a male black with shoulder length hair and a beard robbed her at gunpoint. She testified that the perpetrator was wearing a brown coat and a pink stocking cap. She identified Claybrooks in the courtroom as the robber. As for Jackson, the state presented evidence from which a rational trier of fact could conclude that Jackson drove the car in which Claybrooks escaped from the robbery scene. The record reflects that shortly after the crime was reported, the police stopped a vehicle fitting the description of the getaway car. An officer involved in the arrest of Claybrooks and Jackson testified that the passenger in this car fit the description of the robber. Officer Larry Campbell identified Jackson in court as the driver of the vehicle. Additionally, the arresting officers discovered a stocking cap of the type used as a mask by the robber, a coat of the type worn by the robber, and a sum of money amounting to approximately $2,900. Carolyn Molasy testified that approximately $3,900 was stolen from the bank.
