Pindling v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed Michael Pindling’s convictions for malice murder, armed robbery, and possession of a firearm, holding that the evidence was sufficient under federal due‑process standards and that Georgia’s statutory accomplice‑corroboration requirement was satisfied; the Court also rejected the equal‑access defense and found that the circumstantial‑evidence statute did not apply because direct evidence was present.
