How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that photographs of burned remains were more unfairly prejudicial than probative where court admitted numerous photographs and cause of death was not in dispute, but that admission was harmless considering overwhelming evidence of guilt
- holding photographs of a crash scene were prejudicial because they showed mutilated bodies in the aftermath of a crash scene
- reasoning that the district court abused its discretion when it did not meaningfully weigh the potential for unfair prejudice of each photograph against its probative value
- noting admission of evidence is only precluded when \its probative value is substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice\
- affirming conviction for first-degree murder despite the fact that the jury was not given a verdict form on voluntary manslaughter
- reviewing the trial court's decision to admit photographic evidence for an abuse of discretion
