Criminal. Affirms Jason Walden’s convictions of three counts of Level 1 felony child molesting and two counts of Level 4 felony child molesting but reverses his aggregate 102-year sentence. Finds the Clinton Circuit Court did not abuse its discretion when it replayed the victim’s entire testimony in response to a jury question. Also finds the trial court’s consideration of Walden’s prior acquittals was improper. Remands for resentencing. Judge Cale Bradford concurs in part and dissents in part with separate opinion.
