Brandon Lee Kendall v. State of Indiana
23A-CR-1473
Criminal. Affirms Brandon Lee Kendall’s convictions for Level 6 felony identity deception. Finds that the crime of false informing is distinguishable from identity deception and thus there is no Article 1, Section 16 violation. Also finds the state presented evidence of a probative nature from which a reasonable trier of fact could find Kendall guilty of identity deception and it cannot state the state’s exhibit 2 was not relevant or that the probative value of the exhibit was substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice.
