Young v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed Tia Young’s murder and related convictions, holding that the evidence was sufficient, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying a motion to sever her trial from co‑defendant Harvey Lee, and any error in the jury charge on tampering counts was harmless. The Court also noted, without deciding, that convictions based on the same conduct may raise a merger issue that is of first impression.
