Robinson v. Georgia
Annotate this CaseHerbert Robinson appealed his convictions for malice murder, armed robbery, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony in connection with the death of Michael Moore. On appeal, he argued the trial court erred by allowing the State to use two firearms for demonstrative purposes during trial, and by allowing body-camera footage to be shown at trial. He also argued his trial counsel was ineffective for failing to object to a letter written by Robinson’s cellmate being available to the jury for review during deliberations, and for failing to object to a visual aid used by the State during closing arguments. Because Robinson failed to show ineffective assistance of counsel or reversible error by the trial court, the Georgia Supreme Court affirmed.
