Heading: Whether the evidence supports the judge's finding of a statutory aggravating circumstance from among those enumerated in Section 19-2515, Idaho Code.

Text: Lankford argues that the evidence was insufficient to support the district court's finding of the statutory aggravating factors. Lankford claims that the evidence also failed to show (1) that the murder and the circumstances surrounding its commission demonstrated an utter disregard for human life; (2) that the defendant acted calmly or in a calculated manner; (3) that the defendant has a propensity to commit murder which will probably constitute a continuing threat to society; (4) that the defendant's acts were accompanied by a specific intent to kill. After reviewing the complete record in this case, it is evident that the trial court's finding of the aggravating circumstances listed above were clearly supported by the evidence produced. Lankford's testimony clearly supports aggravating circumstances (1), (2) and (4).
