Indiana Court of Appeals
Taylor D. Hunt v. State of Indiana
25A-CR-1260
Criminal. Appeal from the Allen Superior Court. Judge Steven O. Godfrey. Affirms Hunt’s Level 3 felony conviction for possession of methamphetamine and his 12-year sentence. Finds sufficient evidence supported the conviction where police recovered two bags of identical tablets from Hunt’s pocket, one tablet tested positive for methamphetamine, and Hunt told officers the tablets would test positive, allowing the trial court to infer the untested tablets were the same substance. Also finds the sentence not inappropriate under Appellate Rule 7(B), citing the dangerous circumstances of the offense, Hunt’s criminal history, repeated probation violations, and the fact the offense was committed while on parole. Attorneys for appellant: Gregory L. Fumarolo. Attorneys for appellee: Attorney General Theodore E. Rokita, Deputy Attorney General Alexandria Sons.
