Description
A state-court jury convicted Vincent Doan of aggravated murder, with one death-penalty specification, and three counts of kidnapping. The court followed the recommendation of the jury and imposed a sentence of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole for the aggravated murder conviction and also imposed a nine-year prison term for the kidnapping convictions. In affirming his conviction, the Ohio Court of Appeals rejected Doans claims that the trial court violated his due process rights by utilizing a jury instruction that allegedly reduced the States burden of proof, and that the trial court violated Doans Confrontation Clause rights by admitting hearsay statements indicating that Doan had physically abused or threatened the victim. State v. Doan, No. CA97-12-014, 2000 WL 221963 (Ohio Ct. App. Feb. 28, 2000).
