Supreme Court of Georgia

Smith v. State

September 9, 2019306 Ga. 753

Summary

The court affirmed Smith’s convictions for murder, criminal street gang activity, and related offenses, holding that the evidence was sufficient for a rational jury to find him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The court also held that the trial court properly instructed the jury on conspiracy because more than slight evidence supported an inference of a tacit agreement to pursue a criminal objective.
