How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- helping to hide the body after the murder does not alone constitute aiding and abetting the murder
- reversing conviction for murder where defendant sat in car and did not protest while killer dismembered victim
- gruesome nature of the videotape which results entirely from the acts of the appellant, not from any alteration or autopsy by the State, was properly admitted
- defendant’s participation in concealing the victim’s body did not make her a party to the crime
- neither direct nor sufficient circumstantial evidence that non-shooter was a party to the murder, but cooperated and concealed the death out of fear of the shooter
- not error to admit gruesome photograph or videotape where its unpleasant nature arose from acts of defendant
