State v. Hundley
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed Defendant's convictions for aggravated murder, attempted murder, felonious assault, and aggravated arson and sentence of death on the aggravated murder count, holding that no reversible error occurred.
Specifically, the Supreme Court held (1) the evidence was sufficient to support the aggravated murder conviction; (2) Defendant's aggravated murder conviction was not against the manifest weight of the evidence; (3) the record did not support Defendant's claim that the trial court denied Defendant standby counsel for the suppression hearing, and the court did not err by allowed Defendant to waive counsel for the mitigation hearing; (4) the trial court's comments prior to the mitigation hearing did not render the mitigation hearing fundamentally unfair; and (5) the death penalty in this case was appropriate and proportional.
