Syllabus

Trial court did not err in denying defendant's motion to dismiss on selective prosecution grounds where there was no evidence that she was singled out for prosecution or that the government's charging decision was based upon her race. And, where the only evidence in the record showed that defendant drove her car at the victims because of her dislike for African Americans and not because she had a bona fide belief that she was in imminent danger of death or great bodily harm, she was not entitled to a self-defense jury instruction.
