State v. Jones

Summary

Justice McDonald concurred in affirming the judgment but disagreed that the trial court properly exercised its discretion when it required the jury to review a video exhibit in open court without investigating whether equipment could be obtained for the jury room. He would find an abuse of discretion, but would affirm because the error was harmless in light of the jury's repeated opportunities to view the short video and the strength of the prosecution's corroborating evidence.
