Stroud v. State

Summary

The court affirmed Stroud’s convictions for felony murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the verdict, the court held that the evidence supported a finding that Stroud either directly participated in the crimes or shared a common criminal intent with the shooter as a party to the crimes. The court also held that the denial of Stroud’s directed-verdict motion was proper because that issue is reviewed under the same sufficiency standard.
