Supreme Court of Georgia

Middlebrooks v. State

February 21, 2023315 Ga. 671

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed the conviction of Marina Middlebrooks for murder and cruelty to children, holding that the trial court did not err in admitting the State expert’s testimony on the consequences of a not‑guilty‑by‑reason‑of‑insanity verdict and that any error was harmless. The Court also found no reversible error in limiting the testimony of a VA physician and rejected the claim of ineffective assistance of counsel.
