Supreme Court of Georgia

Head v. State

May 31, 2023316 Ga. 406

Summary

The court affirmed Head’s convictions, holding that the accomplice testimony was sufficiently corroborated by independent evidence, including witness statements, phone-related evidence, Head’s statements, and the recovery of a gun matching the accomplice’s description. The court further held that any error in admitting the detective’s hearsay testimony about Head’s use of a phone number was harmless because the evidence was cumulative and independent admissible evidence supported the verdict.
