State v. Kurtz

Citations

  • 2018 Ohio 3942

Syllabus

Appellant's convictions of aggravated murder, murder, robbery, and kidnapping were not against the manifest weight of the evidence where the jury heard conflicting testimony whether appellant was at fault for causing the affray and whether appellant reasonably believed he was in imminent danger of death or serious bodily harm. Jury did not lose its way and create a manifest miscarriage of justice when it rejected appellant's claim of self-defense. Judgment affirmed.

Judges: Sadler
