Mcconnell Adams is a Michigan murderer you've never heard of! Mcconnell Adams was convicted by Jury in Oakland County of Homicide - Murder First Degree-Premeditated and Felony Murder. His appeal includes: Defendant was tried with his codefendant, Anitra Coomer  , before separate juries in the Oakland Circuit Court in October 1997.   The facts surrounding the death of Dr. Deborah Iverson have been set forth in detail in the companion case, People v. Coomer, 245 Mich.App 206, 627 N.W.2d 612 (2001), and we see no need to restate those facts here.   Defendant's and codefendant Coomer's trial lasted ten days, although much of the testimony was presented to codefendant Coomer's jury only.   There was virtually no physical evidence linking defendant to the murder, as there was with codefendant Coomer.   Thus, this case focuses on the propriety of the admission of defendant's videotaped confession into evidence.

Debra Lynne Smith is a Michigan murderer you've never heard of! Debra Lynne Smith was convicted by Jury in Oakland County of Homicide - Open Murder - Statutory Short Form. Her appeal includes: The challenged evidence that defendant had acted violently toward the victim in the past, that  defendant  had  exhibited  jealousy  of  the  victim,  and  that  the  victim  was  afraid  of  defendant  and wanted to get away from defendant was relevant for a proper purpose—to show defendant’s motive for killing the victim.  See also Fisher, supra at 543.  Evidence that defendant threatened the victim in the past is highly probative of motive, such that its probative value outweighs any prejudicial effect of admitting the evidence. People v Armentero, 148 Mich App 120, 133; 384 NW2d 98 (1986).  Additionally, evidence that defendant owned and was familiar with a handgun was  relevant  to  show  defendant’s  opportunity  to  commit  the  crime  and  to  show  absence  of  mistake  o
