Martin v. State

Summary

The court affirmed Martin’s convictions for felony murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, holding that the evidence was constitutionally and statutorily sufficient. The evidence linked Martin to the planned meeting and shooting through his phone, communications with the victim, distinctive clothing shown on surveillance video, and circumstances indicating a planned robbery. The jury was entitled to reject Martin’s alternative hypothesis that the victim was the aggressor. No separate opinions were filed.
