Description
1 Allen Buckner, III appeals from a corrected judgment of conviction for reckless homicide and armed robbery, and from a post-conviction order denying his sentence modification motion. The issue is whether the trial court erroneously exercised its discretion in imposing a sentence that: (1) was twice as long as that recommended by the presentence investigator; (2) allegedly exceeded the minimum amount of custody necessary to achieve the sentencing considerations ("minimum custody standard"); and (3) was allegedly unduly harsh and excessive. We conclude that the trial court properly exercised its sentencing discretion and explained why it was unimpressed with the presentence investigators recommendation. We further conclude that the trial courts sentencing remarks demonstrated why the sentence met the minimum custody standard and was not unduly harsh and excessive. Therefore, we affirm.
