State v. Brown, C-080320 (4-24-2009)

{¶ 30} After oral argument in this case, the Ohio Supreme Court released State v. Winn , holding unequivocally that robbery and kidnapping are allied offenses. 20 I assumed that would have settled this case. But no. We now learn the fine distinction that if you point a gun a few seconds after you have pocketed the money, then that is a separate animus. Phooey.
