State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Rasul McNeil-Thomas, Defendant-Respondent.

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the Appellate Division’s reversal, reinstated Rasul McNeil-Thomas’s convictions, and remanded for sentencing arguments. It held that the contested five‑second video segment was properly admitted into evidence and that the prosecutor’s closing‑argument comments linking the defendant to the vehicles were permissible inferences within the scope of the evidence.
