Turner v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
Barnes, Judge.
A jury found Norman Turner guilty of two counts of armed robbery. Turner appeals, contending (1) there is insufficient evidence to support one of his armed robbery convictions; (2) the trial court erred when it failed to charge the jury on the lesser included offense of robbery by intimidation; (3) the trial court should not have admitted evidence of his escape from the county jail before his trial; and (4) he received ineffective assistance of counsel because his lawyer failed to object to the jury charge. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.
