Graham v. State

GRIFFIS, P.J.,

for the Court:

¶ 1. John T. Graham appeals his conviction of sexual battery of a victim under the age of fourteen, in violation of Mississippi Code Annotated section 97 — 3—95(l)(d) (Supp.2012). Graham asserts two errors. First, he argues that the prosecutor’s arguments were improper and amounted to misconduct.
