1Opinion of the CourtJustice Manning

Defendant Anthony Robinson appeals from his conviction and sentence of 30 years’ imprisonment for murder after being convicted by a jury for the shooting death of Charles Watson. On appeal defendant raises three issues: (1) whether the trial judge improperly injected his own bias during the hearing on defendant’s motion to suppress his confession; (2) whether the court abused its discretion by denying defendant’s motion to dismiss a juror for cause; and (3) whether the prosecution made improper remarks during the closing argument which necessitates a new trial. We affirm.
