Overview: In a death penalty case, the State's motion under Ind. R. Crim. P. 12(B) did not support a change of judge. The facts that the original judge had held the death penalty statute unconstitutional, that he had emphasized the need for extreme care in death penalty cases, and that he had represented death penalty defendants did not show bias.
