On November 12, 2014, Défendant wás sentenced to life’ imprisonment without benefit of probation, parole, or suspension of sentence. In docket number 15-285, the simple kidnapping conviction which led to Defendant being adjudicated a habitual offender, we vacated Defendant’s conviction on the basis of insufficient evidence. Accordingly, Defendant’s life sentence is vacated. •
