Supreme Court of Arkansas

Edward Thompson Iii, Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee

June 18, 20152015 Ark. LEXIS 476

Summary

The court affirmed Thompson's convictions insofar as his challenges to the photographic identification and juror communication were unpreserved or harmless. It held that the jury's first-degree-murder verdict established robbery, rather than aggravated robbery, as the underlying felony, requiring correction of the aggravated-robbery sentence. The case was therefore affirmed in part and reversed and remanded in part.
