Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Phyllis L. Aluko, District Public Defender, and Tony N. Brayton, Assistant Public Defender (on appeal); and Nick Cloud and Tom Williams, Assistant Public Defenders (at trial) for the appellant, Jamarcus Miller.

Attorneys 2: Herbert H. Slatery III, Attorney General and Reporter; Katherine K. Decker, Assistant Attorney General; Amy P. Weirich, District Attorney General; and Chris Lareau, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WOODALL

Defendant, Jamarcus Miller, was indicted by a Shelby County grand jury for first-degree premeditated murder (Count 1) and first-degree felony murder for a killing in the perpetration of attempted robbery (Count 2). A jury convicted Defendant of the lesserincluded offense of second-degree murder in Count 1, and convicted Defendant as charged in Count 2. On appeal, Defendant argues the evidence is insufficient to support his conviction in Count 2. Having reviewed the entire record and the briefs of the parties, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
