Supreme Court of South Carolina

Louis Michael Winkler, Jr., Respondent v. State of South Carolina, Petitioner — Hearn, J., Concurring

November 23, 2016418 S.C. 643

Summary

Justice Hearn concurs with the majority but separately argues that the post‑conviction relief (PCR) court erred by admitting juror testimony about the jury’s deliberations in violation of Rule 606(b). He holds that this error requires reversal and remand for a new PCR hearing excluding such testimony.
