Thomas v. the State

BARNES, Presiding Judge.

Star Ashley Thomas appeals her convictions for trafficking in methamphetamine and three misdemeanor drug offenses. She argues that there was insufficient evidence to support her trafficking conviction, that the trial court erred by allowing a forensic chemist from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (“GBI”) to testify about drug identification tests performed by a different chemist, and that her trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance by failing to object to the introduction into evidence of both chemists’ crime lab reports. We find no error and affirm.
