Description
Following a nine (9) day jury trial in which appellant was tried with co-defendants Samuel Brown and James Anderson, appellant was found guilty of first degree murder and criminal conspiracy to commit murder in connection with the August 18, 1990 death of Brian Kennedy. The jury acquitted appellant of the three counts of aggravated assault which were also charged in connection with this incident. With the agreement of the parties, the trial court then ordered that appellants penalty hearing be severed from that of the other two co-defendants. Following the penalty hearing, the jury found that one aggravating circumstance outweighed the one mitigating circumstance, and set the penalty at death. Post-verdict motions were filed and these motions were denied. On February 28, 1994, the trial court imposed the jurys sentence of death. This direct appeal followed. For the reasons expressed herein, we affirm the judgment of sentence imposed by the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County.
