Cameron Halliburton v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed Halliburton’s first-degree-murder conviction and life sentence. It held that substantial evidence supported the conviction, that his custodial statement was voluntary under the totality of the circumstances, that a witness’s unsolicited remark did not require a mistrial, and that excluded third-party-guilt evidence was properly rejected because it did not connect the proposed alternative suspect to the murder.
