SC20349 - State v. Patterson (“The defendant, Harold Patterson, directly appeals from the
judgment of conviction, rendered after a jury trial, of two counts of murder in
violation of General Statutes § 53a-54a. He claims that the trial court abused
its discretion in admitting evidence of uncharged misconduct, namely, two prior
shootings involving the alleged murder weapon, to prove identity and means. We
conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion by admitting the
uncharged misconduct. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of conviction.”)
