Supreme Court of Georgia
Price v. the State.
March 4, 2019825 S.E.2d 178
Summary
The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed Price's convictions and life sentence, holding that his recorded statement was voluntary and admissible, that the trial court was presumed to have exercised its discretion as the thirteenth juror, and that counsel's alleged failure to investigate or present mitigation evidence did not establish ineffective assistance. The court found no error because the interview was noncustodial, the investigators' statements did not constitute prohibited inducements, the new-trial order did not show an improper standard, and Price offered no evidence establishing prejudice.
