This court has inspected the record in this cause and concludes that there is
error in the judgment below. Therefore, in accordance with this court’s opinion,
we vacate Appellant’s aggravated kidnapping conviction under Count I because it
violates the Double Jeopardy Clause, and we reverse the trial court’s judgment as
to Count I and render a judgment of acquittal with respect to that count. With
respect to Count II, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
