State of Tennessee v. Briston J. Smith, Jr.

Syllabus

Following a trial, a jury convicted Briston J. Smith, Jr., (\Defendant\) of first degree felony murder and attempted especially aggravated robbery, for which he received an effective life sentence. On appeal, Defendant contends: (1) the evidence is insufficient to support his convictions (2) the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress his statements to law enforcement (3) the trial court abused its discretion in admitting autopsy and life photographs of the victim and (4) he is entitled to a new trial based on improper prosecutorial argument. Upon review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
