Resumen de Georgia Commons (escrito con IA): La Corte Suprema de Georgia confirmó la condena por asesinato de Jacob Pyne en la muerte a tiros de Gerard Foster, rechazando los argumentos de que su abogado de juicio fue ineficaz y de que el alegato final del fiscal trasladó indebidamente la carga de la prueba.

WILLIAMS, CONGRESSWOMAN v. POWELL
Resumen de Georgia Commons (escrito con IA): La Corte Suprema de Georgia confirmó una ley estatal que tipifica como delito perturbar las sesiones y reuniones de la Asamblea General, y rechazó los argumentos de que la ley es inconstitucionalmente vaga o tan amplia que abarca expresión protegida.
1. The statute is seriously flawed. I concur fully in the Court’s decision today that OCGA § 16-11- 34.1 does not criminalize so much protected speech and expressive conduct relative to its constitutionally permissible applications that it must be struck down as overbroad under State v. Fielden, 280 Ga. 444 (629 SE2d 252) (2006). But it is nevertheless...

Williams v. State
Resumen de Georgia Commons (escrito con IA): La Corte Suprema de Georgia confirmó la condena por asesinato de un hombre del condado de Chatham por un tiroteo en un club nocturno, y determinó que cualquier error al admitir pruebas de teléfono celular y un video de demostración fue inofensivo dada la fuerte evidencia en su contra.
1. Williams argues that the trial court erred by denying his motion to suppress evidence seized from his cell phone. Assuming without deciding that the admission of this evidence was error, we conclude that any error was harmless. As established at a pre-trial hearing, Detective Jason Manley proceeded to Charietta’s home on the day of the shooting....
Later, police obtained a passcode for the phone from Charietta. Williams filed a motion to suppress evidence gathered from the search of his phone, arguing that police illegally seized the phone without a search warrant or probable cause, and illegally searched his phone when they “without [a] warrant or probable cause deputized [Charietta] as [an] agent of...

phone necessarily must list each specific kind or category of data the police may look through when they search the phone’s contents. Just as specifying the address of a home can be particular enough to allow police to search rooms, closets, and cabinets throughout the home, identifying a specific cell phone as the “place to be searched” may well be...
Instead, the point to take from Wilson is that a search warrant for a cell phone also needs to tell the police, with sufficient particularity, what they can look for in their search of the phone. As we indicated in Wilson, the warrant must limit the object of the search to evidence of the crimes that the police have probable cause to believe the suspect...

Based on the record before us, Feder has failed to prove that trial counsel’s performance was deficient. The record makes clear that trial counsel made the strategic decision not to move to suppress the cell phone records.
