COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. DANIEL SINNOTT

COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. DANIEL SINNOTT
No. 158 EDA 2008 2009 PA Super 114 Atlantic: n/a Petition for Reargument Denied 8/27/2009 Filed: 6/23/2009

Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence November 26, 2007
In the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County
Criminal Division at No. CP-51-CR-0007913-2007
Before: BENDER, SHOGAN, JJ. and McEWEN, P.J.E.
Opinion by: BENDER, J.
Daniel Sinnott appeals the judgment of sentence imposed following his conviction of Terroristic Threats and Ethnic Intimidation, 18 Pa.C.S. §§ 2706(a), 2710(a) (respectively). Sinnott contends that the Commonwealth failed to adduce sufficient evidence in support of either conviction and asserts accordingly that his judgment of sentence must be reversed. We find the evidence ample to sustain Sinnott’s conviction of Terroristic Threats, but insufficient to sustain his conviction of Ethnic Intimidation. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of sentence in part and reverse in part.
