How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

holding that the State’s exclusion of the sole minority juror was not enough to raise the inference
noting merely showing the State used a peremptory challenge to exclude the “sole” African-American juror did not alone satisfy a prima facie case of discrimination
affirming the trial court ruling that the “defendant’s prior possession of the alleged murder weapon” was admissible on the question of identity and opportunity because of the “highly probative” nature of the evidence
admission of evidence that defendant had previously possessed alleged murder weapon was not abuse of discretion despite contention that probative value was outweighed by prejudice
“The fact that Knox had possession of the knife alleged to be the murder weapon was relevant in showing identity . . . .”
