How courts have described this case

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

we could find no prosecutorial misconduct in the State’s closing argument where the prosecutor commented on the evidence and drew reasonable inferences from it
positive test for gunshot residue indicated that the subject may have (1) discharged a firearm, (2) contacted a gunshot residue particle, or (3) received the particles from an environmental source
the prosecutor’s remarks were properly supported by the evidence and reasonable inferences drawn therefrom
\the brief reference to defense counsel engaging in 'an old trick' was not a central theme in the State's closing argument and therefore did not shift the jury's focus away from the facts of the case or otherwise deny defendant a fair trial\
