Following her convictions for malice murder, felony murder, and armed robbery, Starsha A. Scott appeals, contending that the evidence was insufficient to support the verdict and that the State improperly used its peremptory strikes against two jurors.1 We affirm. Viewed in the light most favorable to the verdict, the record shows that Scott and her cousin, Melvin Cooper, shared a bedroom in the apartment of Scott’s mother. On the morning of May 10, 2000, Cooper woke Scott and told her that he was going to rob a nearby gas station. Cooper asked Scott to accompany him, and Scott agreed to “stand over” the scene. Scott and Cooper were seen leaving their apartment building that morning in big, heavy clothing not needed in the warm weather. Scott followed Cooper to the back of a nearby gas station, and, on the walk there, Scott observed that Cooper was carrying both a canister of mace and a gun. While inside the gas station, Cooper shot and killed the store clerk and stole his credit cards. Scott was close enough to the scene to hear the gunshot and observe the parking lot. Following the shooting, Cooper discarded the heavy clothes he had been wearing in the woods behind the store, and Scott discarded her jacket as well. As soon as they returned to their apartment, Cooper and Scott began using the store clerk’s credit cards to buy groceries, clothing, haircuts, pizza, and gifts for their friends. The stolen credit cards, the victim’s wallet, and the likely murder weapon were found in the apartment, and a number of the items were discovered in the bedroom which Scott and Cooper shared.
This evidence was sufficient to enable a rational trier of fact to find Scott guilty of the crimes with which she was charged. Jackson v. Virginia , 443 U. S. 307 99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560 1979.
