State v. Prioleau

ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE COURT OF APPEALS

PLEICONES, Justice:

Respondent Corey Prioleau (“Prioleau”) was convicted of kidnapping, armed robbery, possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime, and possession of a pistol by a person under twenty-one years of age in connection with a car-jacking in Sumter County.
