The Indiana Supreme Court denied transfer on 12 cases for the week ending July 19.
One of the cases was Edward A. Rose v. State of Indiana, where the Indiana Court of Appeals affirmed Edward Rose’s three convictions in Noble Circuit Court for felony failure to register as a sex or violent offender.
The appellate court found Rose failed to register his online social media accounts for three dating websites: Christianfilipina.com, Jollyromance.com, and Orchidromance.com.
It also found that because the state proved that the dating websites Rose joined were “social networking web sites,” the evidence is sufficient to support Rose’s convictions.
Another case denied transfer by the high court was Robert Quinn v. State of Indiana.
In that case, the appellate court affirmed the St. Joseph Superior Court’s sentence of Robert Quinn to six years in prison for felony child solicitation.
The court found Quinn has failed to show his maximum sentence is an outlier needing revision.
All justices concurred in the denials
