Nalls v. the State. Baskin v. the State.

Summary

The court affirmed the convictions of Nalls and Baskin for murder and related offenses. It held that Nalls showed no plain error from the unconfined justification instruction and that the instruction did not improperly comment on the evidence. It further overruled precedent treating murder and hindering convictions as categorically mutually exclusive, concluding that Baskin was not entitled to a special jury instruction or relief because the verdicts could coexist on the evidence.
