The State v. Kareem Harry

Summary

The South Carolina Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals' decision, holding that the State presented sufficient circumstantial evidence to survive the defendant's motion for a directed verdict on murder under the “hand of one is the hand of all” accomplice theory. The Court applied the standard of reviewing directed verdicts in the light most favorable to the State. Justice Hearn dissented, arguing the evidence was insufficient and the directed verdict should have been granted.
