APPEAL FROM THE HAMILTON SUPERIOR COURT The Honorable Daniel J. Pfleging, Judge Cause No. 29D02-0806-FB-60

May 25, 2011 MEMORANDUM DECISION - NOT FOR PUBLICATION BRADFORD, Judge

Appellant-Defendant Timothy Scott Hanna appeals following his convictions for Class B felony Criminal Deviate Conduct1 and two counts of Class C misdemeanor Furnishing Alcohol to a Minor.2 On appeal, Hanna challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain his convictions. We affirm. FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY On June 16, 2008, D.R., a seventeen-year-old, received permission from her mother to sleep over at the home of her seventeen-year-old friend, C.H. Before watching a movie, D.R. and C.H. planned to go to the grocery store to buy snacks. Hanna, C.H.'s uncle who lived with C.H. and her grandparents in the home, asked to go with them to buy liquor. On the way to the grocery store, Hanna participated in a conversation with the girls about the kind of liquor they liked to drink. After the girls purchased their snacks and Hanna bought a bottle of liquor, they returned home and all watched a movie with C.H.'s grandparents. After C.H.'s grandparents went to sleep, C.H. and D.R. went swimming in the backyard. Hanna stayed up with the girls. He offered C.H. and D.R. some of the liquor he had purchased earlier at the store. C.H. and D.R. drank the liquor mixed with Coca-Cola. C.H. became sick, so the girls went to C.H.'s bedroom to sleep. Because C.H. had become ill, D.R. decided to sleep on blankets on the floor, next to C.H.'s bed. D.R. borrowed C.H.'s portable music player, and fell asleep sometime after midnight with headphones in her ears, listening to music.
