Jackson v. State
Opinion Date: November 15, 2012 |
Judge: Per Curiam
Areas of Law: Civil Rights, Constitutional Law, Criminal Law
Appellant appealed from a
judgment of conviction of first-degree murder and a sentence of death
for the killing of Andrea Boyer, as well as a conviction for sexual
battery by use of actual physical force likely to cause serious personal
injury. The Supreme Court reversed the convictions, vacated the
sentence of death, and remanded for a new trial, holding that reversible
error occurred in the guilt phase of the trial, when the State
introduced a lengthy videotape of Appellant's custodial interrogation in
which the investigating officers repeatedly expressed their personal
opinions about Appellant's guilt and the victim's character and family
life.
