SC20784 - State v. Dixon ("The most significant issue raised in this appeal is whether the trial court properly allowed the state's gang expert to testify as to 'neighborhoods,' 'neighborhood divisions,' and the 'dynamics' between neighborhoods in the city of Stamford, despite the fact that the prosecutor conceded that the defendant, Sirus Dixon, was not in a gang. The defendant also raises various other claims, including that the court failed to provide certain proposed jury instructions, the jury returned an inconsistent verdict, and there was insufficient evidence to sustain his conviction. Although we agree with the defendant that the admission of the testimony from the state's gang expert witness was improper, we conclude that this error was harmless. We also reject the defendant's other claims. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of conviction.")
