State v. Collins

Summary

The court affirmed the defendant’s conviction for selling a controlled drug resulting in death. It held that any conflict involving the county attorney’s legal assistant was not imputed to the entire county attorney’s office and that screening measures made denial of recusal sustainable. It also held that, viewing the evidence favorably to the State, a rational jury could find both that the decedent died from acute fentanyl toxicity and that the defendant supplied the lethal dose.
