State v. Greenslit
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of first-degree murder, failure to report a death with the intention of concealing a crime, obstruction of a firefighter while in the execution of his duty, and violation of a no-contact order. Defendant filed a motion for a new trial, which the trial justice denied. The Supreme Court upheld the trial justice’s denial of Defendant’s motion for a new trial, holding that, based on the Court’s review of the record and the trial justice’s application of the required three-step analysis, and after consideration of Defendant’s contentions, the trial justice was neither clearly wrong nor misconceived or overlooked material evidence when she denied Defendant’s motion for a new trial.
