Deon Jones was convicted of felony murder and influencing a witness in connection with the shooting death of Scott Corwin. He argued that the statute of limitation barred the witness-influencing conviction, that the trial court made evidentiary errors, that trial counsel was ineffective, and that cumulative error required a new trial. The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed the felony-murder conviction but reversed the conviction for influencing a witness because the prosecution was time-barred under the applicable statute. The Court rejected the remaining claims or found them unnecessary to the disposition. The final judgment was affirmed in part and reversed in part.
