McCoy v. State

February 7, 2023315 Ga. 536

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed McCoy’s convictions for felony murder and related offenses, holding that the trial evidence was sufficient both to admit the crime‑scene technician’s testimony and to establish McCoy as a party to the crime under Georgia’s accomplice liability statute. The Court applied a de novo standard of review, finding the jury’s factual determinations supported by the record.
