  • observing that the standard “false in one, false in all” charge is of questionable necessity and holding that failure to give the charge is not reversible error where the overall charge accurately instructs the jury “to consider all relevant factors in considering credibility”
  • when a full and complete charge is given on how a jury is to assess the credibility of witnesses, there is no reversible error when a court fails to give the false in one/false in all instruction
