Supreme Court of Georgia

Wilcox v. State

November 12, 2020310 Ga. 428

Summary

The court affirmed the convictions because the evidence authorized the jury to find that Wilcox voluntarily participated in the burglary, rape, murder, and related crimes and to reject his coercion defense. The court also declined to disturb the denial of Wilcox’s motion for a new trial on the general grounds because that determination rests with the trial court.
