State v. Triplett
State v. Triplett
Opinion of the Court
Defendant appeals from a jury conviction of robbery in the first degree, § 569.020, RSMo 1986, and armed criminal action, § 571.015, RSMo 1986. He was sentenced as a dangerous and persistent offender to two consecutive terms of life imprisonment. We affirm.
On appeal defendant asserts the State failed to make a submissible case. We accept as true all evidence, which supports the verdict in order to determine whether there was sufficient evidence from which reasonable people could find defendant guilty. State v. Moseley, 705 S.W.2d 613, 616[8, 9] (Mo.App. 1986).
Defendant was charged with robbing a Fashion Gal store. The manager and assistant manager of Fashion Gal both testified that defendant and an accomplice, with the aid of a gun, took approximately $4,000 from the store. Both witnesses identified defendant from a photographic array, in a lineup, and in court during the trial.
Judgment affirmed.
