Snell v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
1Opinion of the Court
Darrell Hickman, Justice.
The appellant, Richard Wayne Snell, was convicted of murdering Arkansas State Trooper Louis Bryant and sentenced to life imprisonment without parole. Snell has raised these three points on appeal: (1) a “death qualified” jury is unconstitutional; (2) a challenge to a juror for cause should have been sustained; and (3) an objection to the introduction of evidence of weapons in Snell’s possession but which he did not use in the commission of the offense should have been sustained. We find no reversible error in the proceedings, and thus we affirm.
