State v. Crenshaw4/6/2005
eals that the trial court specifically stated that Defendant was to serve his terms consecutively. At sentencing, the trial court stated, in part:
As to each count of vehicular homicide it is the sentence of this court that Mr. Crenshaw serve 20 years at hard labor, one year which will be without benefit of probation, parole or suspension of sentence.
....
These sentences will run consecutively with each other.
....
On the charge of first degree vehicular negligent injury, it is the sentence of the court that he serve five years at hard labor...That sentence will run consecutively as well. The sentences will run consecutively with each other. (Emphasis ours.)
Further, Defendant had multiple prior DWI convictions, yet had not sought treatment for his alcoholism until after this fatal collision. His repeated behavior constitutes a continuing danger to the safety of the community; and, given the language of Robinson, supra, and Hampton, supra, the record justifies the imposition of consecutive sentences such that they should not be set aside. Accordingly, we reject Defendant's argument that his sentences should be served concurrently.
ERROR PATENT REVIEW
A complete review of the record reflected no errors patent.
CONCLUSION
For the reasons set forth herein, the convictions and sentences of Defendant, Dennis Laine Crenshaw, are affirmed.
AFFIRMED.
