Criminal Law: Receiving Stolen Property-Sufficiency Of Evidence-‘Knowingly’

Staff Report//April 22, 2019

 

Where a defendant, who was convicted of receiving stolen property, argued that there was insufficient evidence to show that he knowingly received the stolen property, which was an air-conditioning unit, the judgment is affirmed because the state adduced evidence of the suspiciously low price of the unit, that it was in new condition except for cut tubes and wires and that there were inconsistencies in the defendant’s explanation.

Judgment is affirmed.

State v. Oliver (MLW No. 73086/Case No. ED106283 – 7 pages) (Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District, Odenwald, J.) Appealed from circuit court, Franklin County, Wood, J. (David L. Bryant and Katharine P. Curry for appellant) (Justin A. Moody for respondent).
