How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding the fact that two robberies occurred in south St. Louis County while one occurred in west St. Louis County insufficient to defeat joinder
- finding joinder proper where all four robberies were committed in St. Louis County within a three-week period
- viewing the same getaway car as a factor in finding joinder of offenses stemming from four robberies
- \Criminal responsibility for the acts of another does not require a common intent other than the promotion of the commission of an offense.\
- although the defendant may not have known that the principal was armed, he was still responsible for armed robbery based on his intent to commit burglary
- “[T]he evidence establishing defendant’s participation in 17 each of the four crimes is so intertwined that a complete picture of the investigation of any of the offenses could not be presented without mention of the others.”
