Supreme Court of Georgia
Reed v. State
September 7, 2022314 Ga. 534
Summary
The court affirmed Reed’s convictions except for the felony-murder conviction and sentence, which it vacated because he could be sentenced only for malice murder arising from Curry’s death. The court rejected Reed’s challenges concerning evidentiary sufficiency, appellate delay, his absence from bench conferences, prosecutorial disqualification, the incomplete transcript, alleged suppression of Crime Stoppers information, the denied continuance, and ineffective assistance of counsel. Because the firearm sentence ran consecutively to the vacated felony-murder sentence, the case was remanded for resentencing. No separate opinions were filed.
