How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that the defendant failed to make the requisite showing of prejudice under the fourth Barker- Doggett factor despite presumptively prejudicial six-and-a-half-year delay
  • affirming convic- tion where defendants, in the course of committing a burglary, held an elderly man at gunpoint and taped him to a chair, where he died after several days without food or medication
  • rejecting Brady claim on the prejudice prong where the defendant “offer[ed] no evidence that anything contained in the [alleged Brady material] might have differed from the testimony about [that material] or [other evidence] that was presented at trial”
  • “Because the trial court was sitting as a trier of fact in determining what transpired during jury deliberations, we defer to its resolution of this and any other conflicts or inconsistencies in the evidence presented.”
