State v. Jacobs

EDMUNDS, Justice.

On 15 October 2007, a jury found defendant Khalil Jacobs guilty of the murder of George Nichols. In this appeal, we consider whether the trial court erred in excluding evidence proffered by defendant in the form of certified copies of the victim’s prior armed robbery convictions and certain testimony about the victim. We conclude that defendant failed to preserve for appellate review several of his objections and that the trial court did not commit prejudicial error in its evidentiary rulings. Accordingly, we affirm the decision of the Court of Appeals.
