SC20840 - State v. Jones (“On appeal, the defendant claims that the trial court (1) improperly admitted into evidence testimony related to the defendant’s alleged gang affiliation, and (2) abused its discretion in admitting into evidence the defendant’s actions after law enforcement attempted to arrest him in Louisiana to establish his consciousness of guilt. We disagree and, accordingly, affirm the judgment of the trial court.”)
AC43796 - State v. Garrison (Assault in the first degree; motion to suppress; “The
remaining issues on appeal are whether the trial court improperly denied (1)
the defendant’s motion to suppress because, contrary to the determination of
the court, his statements to the police were not voluntary, and therefore their
admission at trial violated his right to due process, and (2) his motion for
sanctions in which he claimed that the state had failed to comply with the
court’s discovery orders and its constitutional obligation to disclose
impeachment evidence pursuant to Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83, 87, 83
S. Ct. 1194, 10 L. Ed. 2d 215 (1963). We are not persuaded by these claims and
therefore affirm the judgment of conviction.”)
