Supreme Court of Connecticut

State v. Abraham

May 31, 2022343 Conn. 470

Summary

The court affirmed the defendant's convictions, holding that circumstantial evidence sufficiently established his identity as the perpetrator. It also held that the attempt and reckless-endangerment convictions were legally consistent because the jury could reasonably attribute them to separate acts involving different mental states, and that the home-invasion and attempted-assault convictions did not violate double jeopardy because each offense required proof of an element the other did not.
