Johnson v. State

The defendant was not harmed by the state's failure to disclose the pretrial statements of three juveniles since the officer who interviewed the juveniles testified that they initially denied any participation in the crimes.

A Richmond County jury convicted Anthony Johnson of first degree arson. On appeal, Johnson contends that the trial court erred in denying his Brady1 motion and in failing to order the State to produce prior, inconsistent statements made by several State witnesses. For reasons that follow, we affirm.

The relevant facts follow. On September 14, 1991, while at the Cumberland Apartments, Johnson, Valdez Lamkin, and Dwayne Williams decided to “scare” apartment manager Frank Olive by throwing Molotov cocktails into his apartment because of an alleged derogatory comment he made. Johnson and Williams went to a gas station, and Williams pumped gasoline into a container while Johnson paid for the gas. The two returned to the apartment of Michelle Imler, and Williams assembled four Molotov cocktails using coke bottles, gasoline, and socks that Johnson obtained from Imler.
