Bishop v. State

How courts have described this case

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

• stating that in view of the strength of the evidence, the prosecutor’s closing argument comparing the defendant to an animal and mentioning the defendant’s right to refuse questioning at the jail had a minimal effect and could not have affected the verdict
• refusing to find the identification unduly suggestive and violative of due process because there was no state action where a witness first identified the defendant from a single picture in a local newspaper
