Charles Moore, Appellant (defendant Below) v. State of Indiana, Appellee (plaintiff Below)

Summary

The Indiana Supreme Court affirmed Moore’s murder and felony-murder convictions and sentences, rejecting his claim that inconsistent testimony triggered the incredible dubiosity rule. The rule applies only in limited circumstances involving a sole witness whose testimony is inherently contradictory, equivocal, or coerced, with no corroborating circumstantial evidence. Multiple witnesses, corroborating testimony, and physical evidence connected Moore to the shootings, allowing a reasonable jury to find guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
