Supreme Court of Georgia
Bradshaw v. the State
March 2, 2015296 Ga. 650
Summary
The court affirmed Bradshaw’s convictions for the murders and related offenses, holding that the evidence was sufficient even when considering the properly admitted evidence of a prior Ohio murder. The court also held that the prior murder was admissible under the applicable other-acts framework to prove intent and motive, and that its probative value was not substantially outweighed by unfair prejudice. The court further concluded that the accomplice’s testimony was adequately corroborated by independent physical and forensic evidence.
