State v. Thomas Mosley

Summary

The Supreme Court of Rhode Island affirmed Thomas Mosley’s convictions for second‑degree murder, discharging a firearm while committing a crime of violence, and obstruction of justice, rejecting all twenty‑one appellate arguments. The Court held that the retrial on the firearm charge did not violate double jeopardy, that the trial judge’s jury instructions and evidentiary rulings were proper, and that the joinder of the obstruction counts was lawful. It also affirmed the admissibility of the Drepaul recording, the Google Wi‑Fi data, and the suppression rulings, and remanded for entry of a corrected judgment of conviction.
