Mims v. Georgia
Annotate this CaseNathan Mims was convicted by jury for murder and possession of a knife during the commission of a crime for stabbing his ex-girlfriend, Naty Ortiz-Ramos, to death. His sole enumeration of error was that the evidence presented at his trial was insufficient to sustain his convictions because the evidence showed that he could not control himself and thus was not responsible for the killing. The Georgia Supreme Court found the jury was not required to believe his explanation of Ortiz-Ramos’s killing; the evidence was sufficient to convict him, so his convictions were affirmed.
