• holding that, because the aggravated assault counts merged with the felony murder count for sentencing purposes, the appellant’s challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence on the aggravated assault counts was moot
• “Even without considering this direct evidence of guilt, however, the circumstantial evidence was enough to support [the appellant’s] convictions,” which required a showing, inter alia, that the appellant was guilty of “the commission of an aggravated assault.”
