Supreme Court of Georgia

Wallace v. State

October 15, 2024320 Ga. 272

Summary

The court affirmed Wallace's convictions for felony murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. It held that the evidence satisfied Georgia's corroboration statute and federal constitutional sufficiency requirements, and that any assumed due process violation from shackling Wallace was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. The court also rejected Wallace's ineffective-assistance claims because he failed to establish deficient performance or prejudice.
