View this case - free  

Overview: As defendant did not attempt to enter an Alford plea, defendant's claim that the trial court had a policy of not accepting such pleas and that it should have allowed him to enter such a plea because he had maintained his innocence throughout the proceedings was not reviewable on appeal, as the alleged error was not preserved.

View this case - free  

Overview: As a trial court relied on the discretionary factors under R.C. § 2929.12(B) through (D) in imposing a non-minimum term of imprisonment on defendant, there was no violation of his Sixth Amendment rights under Foster, Apprendi, and Blakely; however, imposition of consecutive terms under R.C. § 2929.14(E)(4) was error.

Overview: The definition of "detention" was not vague, and the conduct prohibited by R.C. § 2921.34, regarding escape, was clear.
