Kyle Anthony Gray v. State of Indiana (mem. dec.)
22A-CR-456
Criminal. Affirms and reverses in part Kyle Anthony Gray’s convictions of murder, murder while committing arson and two counts of arson. Finds the Lake Superior Court did not abuse its discretion when it declined to instruct the jury on reckless homicide or criminal mischief. Also finds the trial court erred when it entered judgment of conviction on all four counts but “merged” two of the convictions at sentencing and sentenced Gray only for murder and Level 4 felony arson. Finally, finds double jeopardy concerns required that Gray’s convictions for murder while committing arson and Level 2 felony arson be vacated and, thus, remands for those convictions to be vacated.

22A-CR-1590
Criminal. Affirms Keith Jabaay’s sentence to five years in the Department of Correction. Finds Jabaay’s sentence is not inappropriate in light of the nature of the offense and his character.
