State vs. Michelle Ferguson
E1999-01302-CCA-R3-CD
Authoring Judge: Judge Thomas T. Woodall
Trial Court Judge: Carroll L. Ross
Defendant Michelle Ferguson was convicted by a jury of two counts of aggravated child abuse and one count of first degree murder in perpetration of aggravated child abuse. The trial court subsequently imposed concurrent sentences of eighteen years, eighteen years, and life. Defendant challenges her convictions, raising the following issues: (1) whether the evidence was sufficient to support her convictions; (2) whether the trial court erred when it failed to sever the trials for the charges in this case; and (3) whether the trial court erred when it failed to grant a motion for a mistrial. The judgment of the trial court is reversed, and the case is remanded for a new trial.
