Davis v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed Davis’s convictions, holding that the evidence was sufficient, his counsel’s performance was not constitutionally ineffective, the failure to give a confession‑corroboration instruction did not constitute plain error, and his prosecutorial‑misconduct and Brady claims were unpreserved or meritless. The Court applied established sufficiency, Strickland, and plain‑error standards, finding ample corroborating evidence and no material prejudice.
