Cochran v. State

KENNEDY, Presiding Judge.

The appellant, George E. Cochran, III, appeals from the denial in the Circuit Court of Jackson County of his Rule 24.035 motion to set aside his Alford pleas and four life sentences. We affirm the decision of the circuit court.

Cochran was initially charged with two counts of first degree murder and two counts of armed criminal action. Cochran’s attorney moved to suppress certain evidence.
