Washington v. Georgia
Annotate this CaseBrantley Washington and his co-defendants, Chrishon Siders and Haleem Graham, were convicted of malice murder, first degree burglary, and other crimes in connection with the 2016 shooting death of Seine Jackson. Washington appealed, arguing the trial court erred in admitting hotel surveillance videos from the day before and the day of the crimes, along with the opinion testimony of two detectives describing the surveillance videos and a dashcam video recording of a traffic stop taken on the night of the crimes. Washington also claimed he received ineffective assistance of counsel when his trial counsel failed to object to that evidence. Finding no reversible error, the Georgia Supreme Court affirmed Washington's convictions.
