There was no evidence that any of the jurors were related to defendant.

Thank you for sharing!

Your article was successfully shared with the contacts you provided.

The appellant, Sallie Webb, appeals from her conviction for the malice murder of General Lee Chambers.1 On appeal, Webb contends that the evidence is insufficient to support her conviction, that three jurors should have been stricken because of their relationship to her, and that the trial court erred in charging on intent. We conclude that these contentions have no merit, and affirm her conviction.

1. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the verdict, we conclude that the evidence would have authorized a rational trier of fact to find that Ms. Webb planned the murder of her sister’s estranged husband, found gunmen to shoot the victim, provided them with a gun, and drove them to the victim’s home on the night of the crime. Accordingly, the evidence is sufficient to support the conviction of malice murder.2
