How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that a defendant's membership in a gang that rivaled a gang to which the victim purportedly belonged was \probative in establishing motive\
  • holding that the circuit court did not abuse its discretion in determining that the probative value of autopsy photographs of the victim outweighed any 40 potential unfair prejudice because the autopsy photographs depicted the nature and severity of the victim’s injuries
  • “It is well-settled that when specific grounds are given at trial for an objection, the party objecting will be held to those grounds and ordinarily waives any grounds not specified that are later raised on appeal.”
