State v. Kim, A06-515, COURT OF APPEALS OF MINNESOTA, July 3, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Admission of posed photo of victim was not improper admission of hearsay because photo was not misleading and was properly illustrative.

State v. Lyons, A05-546, COURT OF APPEALS OF MINNESOTA, July 3, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court's finding that the assault was a "savage attack" on the victim that occurred over a long course of time supported a finding of particular cruelty; as defendant pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting first-degree assault, the acts of the others who had aided were attributable to him for sentencing purposes under Minn. Stat. § 609.05.
