State v. Jackson

Opinion

ORDER

Anthony L. Jackson appeals a jury verdict finding him guilty of first-degree murder and armed criminal action. Jackson contends first that the trial court erred in sustaining the State’s oral motion in limine precluding him from offering testimony that the reddish substance in which the fingerprint was found at his apartment was blood. Second, Jackson argues that the trial court erred in not granting his motion for judgment of acquittal and for submitting to the jury the verdict directing instruction for murder in the first degree because there was insufficient evidence of “deliberation.” Finally, he argues that the trial court erred in overruling his Miranda objection to the admission of evidence regarding his statements to law enforcement officers while in custody. Having reviewed the record on appeal and finding no error, this court affirms the judgment. Rule 30.25(b).
