June 11, 2024319 Ga. 275

Summary

The Court affirmed the felony-murder and attempted-marijuana-sale convictions of McCabe and Dunston. It held that the evidence supported both defendants' participation in an attempted robbery and that the shooting was a foreseeable result of the criminal conduct; it also rejected challenges involving juror misconduct, severance, ineffective assistance, and the proximate-cause jury charge. There were no separate opinions.
