How courts have described this case

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

holding prosecutor did not impermissibly shift burden by noting defendant had same subpoena power as State but had failed to call alibi witnesses
explaining that prosecutors' wide latitude in crafting closing arguments \allows a prosecutor to argue reasonable inferences that may be drawn from the admitted evidence\
explaining that counts cannot be multiplicitous if they arise from separate conduct
arguing the evidence contradicts the defendant's testimony is acceptable, but a prosecutor's statement that they \don't believe\ the defendant's statement crosses the line
no improper burden shifting by commenting on the defendant's failure to call witnesses corroborating his alibi
prosecutor's comment that defendant could have called alibi witnesses was fair rebuttal to defense counsel's argument that State failed to call witnesses who could corroborate defendant's account
