State v. James R. Rosenbaum

Syllabus

In his appeal from a voluntary manslaughter conviction, Appellant James R. Rosenbaum argues the circuit court erred by (1) denying Appellant immunity from prosecution pursuant to the Protection of Persons and Property Act (the Act) (2) allowing the State to introduce evidence of Appellant's prior victimhood of sexual assault as well as his jailhouse statements as probative evidence of a racial motive for the alleged crime and (3) improperly instructing the jury regarding evidence of his codefendant's guilt. We affirm.
