Washington v. Condon (Majority and Dissent)
Annotate this CaseA jury found defendant Joel Condon guilty of several offenses including aggravated first degree (premeditated) murder and first degree felony murder, stemming from his involvement in a home invasion robbery attempt. He argued on appeal that the evidence presented against him at trial was insufficient to support the jury's verdict, and that there were errors by the trial court in instructing the jury. The Court of Appeals found there was sufficient evidence of premeditation, but that it was error to deny Condon's request for an instruction on the lesser included crime. The Supreme Court affirmed the appellate court's judgment.
