Overview: In a rape case, under O.C.G.A. § 16-6-1(a)(1), overwhelming evidence showed the victim's vaginal tears did not result from consensual sex, and the jury could weigh any inconsistencies in the victim's testimony.

Smith v. State, A06A0180., COURT OF APPEALS OF GEORGIA, May 5, 2006, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Evidence that defendant returned to the scene looking for the victim in order to shoot him, was sufficient to sustain two aggravated assault convictions. But, resentencing was ordered, as the charges merged. Further, photographic evidence of the victim's injuries and of defendant's firearm were not cumulative, and admitted for different purposes.
