Wilson v. Georgia
Annotate this CaseAppellant Charles Wilson was convicted of murder and related offenses in connection with the 2012 shooting death of Jesse Howard. Wilson appealed, asserting various errors in the adjudication of his motion for new trial, insufficiency of the evidence, evidentiary error, and improper refusal to bifurcate the trial of certain counts. The Georgia Supreme Court concluded that though none of Wilson’s enumerations had merit, the Court did find an error in his sentencing. The Court therefore affirmed in part, vacated in part, and remanded for resentencing.
