Warren v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia

Decided February 16, 2012No. A11A2361PublishedCited by 19 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

McFadden, Judge.

Jimmie Lee Warren, Jr., was jointly tried with two co-defendants on a charge of trafficking in cocaine. After a jury trial, Warren was convicted of that offense. As detailed below, we find the evidence sufficient to support Warren’s conviction. We find no abuse of discretion in the trial court’s denial of Warren’s motions for mistrial, which he based on assertions that the state had made improper arguments and comments concerning his character. Finally, we find no error in the trial court’s denial of Warren’s motion to suppress cocaine found in his car. Accordingly, we affirm.
