“| sThe standard of review for a sufficiency of the evidence claim is “whether, after viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime proven beyond a reasonable doubt.” Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319 , 99 S.Ct. 2781 , 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979) (emphasis in original); State v. Mussall, 523 So.2d 1305 (La.1988). An appellate court does not re-weigh the evidence or assess the credibility of witnesses. Mussall, 523 So.2d 1305 . Determining the weight of the evidence is a question of fact, reserved for the fact-fínder, and we will only infringe on that function to the extent necessary to meet the Jackson standard. State v. Silman, 95-0154 (La.11/27/95), 663 So.2d 27 .”
