Appellant Travis Wilcher was convicted of murder, armed robbery, and related crimes in connection with the 2007 shooting death of Tollie Mitchell. Appellant appeals the denial of his motion for new trial, asserting insufficiency of the evidence, evidentiary error, and error in the jury charge. Finding no error, we affirm.1

1. Viewed in the light most favorable to the jury’s verdict, the evidence adduced at trial established as follows. On May 11, 2007, Tollie Mitchell was shot while sitting in the driver’s seat of his car behind a shopping mall in Augusta. When law enforcement arrived at the scene, Mitchell was already dead, having sustained fatal wounds to his head and the back of his neck. Forensic evidence indicated that Mitchell had been shot from behind at close range.
