Steven Matthew Wolf v. State of Florida

Summary

The court affirmed Wolf’s convictions and death sentence after rejecting his challenges to venue, juror qualifications, hearsay, penalty-phase argument, jury instructions, the HAC aggravator, the indictment, cumulative error, and the sufficiency of the evidence. The court held that the evidence supported venue and both murder theories, that the challenged evidentiary and instructional rulings were proper or harmless, and that any unpreserved prosecutorial misconduct was not fundamental error.
