Description
1 Romey J. Hodges appeals from a judgment of conviction for first-degree reckless homicide, and from a post-conviction order denying his motion for sentencing relief. The issues are whether the trial court erroneously exercised its sentencing discretion by: (1) failing to meaningfully consider Hodgess mental and emotional limitations; (2) failing to explain how the confinement term was the minimum amount of custody necessary to achieve the sentencing considerations ("minimum custody standard"); and (3) imposing an unduly harsh and excessive sentence. We conclude that the trial court properly exercised its sentencing discretion by considering the primary sentencing factors, including Hodgess character and his limitations, and by explaining the reasons for its sentence, which was not unduly harsh or excessive. Therefore, we affirm.
