Clyde Timothy Bunkley v. State of Florida
no. 01-297
Sarasota County
Bunkley was sentenced to life imprisonment for burglarizing a closed, unoccupied
restaurant. The jury was allowed to consider the fact that, at the time of his
arrest, Bunkley had in his possession a pocket knife. He argued that this was
improper, but the Second District Court disagreed.
