Jones v. Commonwealth
Court of Appeals of Virginia
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion
COLEMAN, J.
Keith Jones was convicted in the Circuit Court of the City of Richmond of felony murder and use of a firearm in the commission of murder. He also pled guilty to robbery and use of a firearm in the commission of robbery. Jones contends that the evidence is insufficient to sustain the felony murder conviction. We find the evidence to be sufficient and affirm the conviction.
Where sufficiency of evidence is challenged on appeal, the court must view the evidence in the light most favorable to the Commonwealth and accord to it all reasonable inferences fairly deducible therefrom.…
