Supreme Court of Georgia

Young v. the State.

February 4, 2019305 Ga. 92

Summary

The court affirmed Young's felony-murder conviction, concluding that the circumstantial evidence was legally sufficient and that the trial court committed no reversible error in admitting photographs, instructing the jury, rejecting ineffective-assistance claims, or denying relief concerning the arrest warrant and indictment. The court vacated the aggravated-assault conviction and sentence because the aggravated assault merged into the murder. No separate opinions were filed.
