Supreme Court of Georgia
Evans v. State
May 4, 2020308 Ga. 582
Summary
The court affirmed Evans’s convictions, holding that his challenges to the voluntariness of his October 19 statements and consents were not preserved because he did not raise them in the trial court. It also rejected his ineffective-assistance claims because the evidence supported findings that his statements and consents were voluntary, so a suppression motion would have been meritless. The court independently concluded that the evidence was sufficient to support the convictions.
