Muhammad v. State
Annotate this CaseDefendant appealed his conviction for malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, and tampering with evidence. Defendant contended that the evidence was insufficient to support the verdict and the trial court erred by admitting similar transaction evidence. The court held that the evidence was sufficient to enable the jury to find defendant guilty of the crimes for which he was convicted beyond a reasonable doubt. The court also held that the trial court did not err in admitting evidence of defendant's prior conviction for arson where the State offered the evidence to show defendant's bent of mind or course of conduct in using escalating degrees of violence toward women. Accordingly, the court affirmed the judgment.
