Annotate this CaseShanqulalandali Cheley was tried by jury and convicted of murder and other crimes in connection with the 2012 killing of Amber DeLoach. Following the denial of his motion for new trial, Cheley appealed, contending that: (1) the trial court erred when it denied his motion to suppress statements that he gave to law enforcement officers; (2) when it denied his motion to exclude or redact a trial exhibit; (3) when it limited his cross-examination of two jailhouse informants who testified for the prosecution; and (4) when it failed to rebuke the prosecuting attorney for an allegedly improper closing argument. Finding no error, the Georgia Supreme Court affirmed.
