Supreme Court of Georgia
Anthony v. State
November 2, 2017302 Ga. 546
Summary
The court affirmed Anthony's convictions for malice murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime. It held that his challenge to the photographic identification was not preserved, that the alleged newly discovered evidence and Brady claim did not warrant a new trial, and that his preserved ineffective-assistance claims failed on the merits. The court also held that the remaining trial-counsel claims were procedurally barred and that post-trial counsel's alleged deficiencies did not establish prejudice.
