State v. Hopkins

506 S.W.3d 367, 2016 Mo. App. LEXIS 1037, 2016 WL 6081989

Opinion

ORDER

PER CURIAM:

Following a jury trial in the Circuit Court of Clay County, Appellant Arthur Hopkins was convicted of burglary in the first degree in connection with a 2006 home invasion. The State alleged that Hopkins aided and encouraged the two individuals who actually perpetrated the burglary. Hopkins appeals. He argues that the evidence was insufficient to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he was criminally responsible as an accomplice, and that the circuit court erred in admitting into evidence statements made by one of his alleged co-conspirators. We affirm. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, we have provided the parties an unpublished memorandum setting forth the reasons for this order. Rule 30.25(b).¹
