• concluding that the admission of security camera footage was harmless where “[t]he State’s case against [the defendant] was strong”
• concluding that evidence regarding gang membership was relevant to and probative of the defendant’s motive because it provided context for the charged crimes
• holding that “erroneous admission of hearsay is harmless where substantial, cumulative, legally admissible evidence of the same fact is introduced”
• holding that the testimony of one officer about the contents of a surveillance video he did not watch was inadmissible hearsay because it was based only on what another officer, who had watched the video, told him
• holding that evidence of gang membership was relevant to establish motive in a gang-related murder case, and that such evidence should not be excluded under OCGA § 24-4-403 11 because, although the inculpatory evidence was highly prejudicial, it was not unfairly so
• holding that evidence that helped explain the appellant’s motive was probative
