He challenged the admission of Department of Revenue records (Exhibit 7) on hearsay and Confrontation Clause grounds, and argued there was insufficient evidence to prove he \"retained\" the stolen camper trailer. The appellate court affirmed the conviction, finding no abuse of discretion or error in admitting Exhibit 7, and concluding that sufficient evidence supported the \"retained\" element of the crime.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","evidence","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=168853","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-of-missouri-respondent-v-matthew-scott-mahurin-appellant-d36257","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":38,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
