Description
In August 2002, Eubert Lloyd (Defendant) was charged by information with committing the class B felony of manufacturing a controlled substance in violation of Section 195.211 by growing more than five grams of marijuana. The original information was later amended to allege that Defendant was a persistent offender. See Section 558.016.3. During the trial, the court found Defendant to be a persistent offender beyond a reasonable doubt. A jury convicted Defendant of the charged offense, and the trial court determined punishment. See Section 557.036.4(1). Defendant received an enhanced sentence of 30 years in prison. See Section 558.016.7(2). Defendant presents four points on appeal. He contends the trial court erred in: (1) excluding hearsay evidence relating to Defendants state of mind concerning the growing of marijuana on his property; (2) not acting sua sponte to remedy alleged prosecutorial misconduct during cross-examination and closing argument; (3) excluding evidence that other marijuana was discovered on Defendants property five months after he was arrested; and (4) denying Defendants motion to suppress. We affirm.
