Supreme Court of Connecticut
State v. Bruny
February 7, 2022342 Conn. 169
Summary
The court affirmed convictions for murder and criminal possession of a pistol or revolver. It held that lay identification testimony and forensic video-analysis testimony were admissible, that any error concerning redirect testimony and the challenged identification was harmless, that no special credibility instruction was required for an incarcerated witness who testified about observing an event rather than hearing an inculpatory statement, and that the evidence sufficiently established the firearm's barrel length. No separate opinion is included in the requested record.
