  • error in admitting lay testimony was harmless where there was no reasonable probability that the admission of the evidence contributed to the jury’s verdict
  • for Miranda purposes, an individual is in custody if a reasonable person in the place of the defendant would feel so restrained as to equate to a formal arrest
  • trial court “may exclude relevant evidence if its probative value is substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice, confusion of the issues, or misleading the jury”
  • The Supreme Court of Georgia concluded admitting skeletal remains of the victim into evidence, and publishing the skeleton to the jury, was not overly prejudicial in a murder trial.
