F-2018-622
The opinion you provided appears to be a detailed court ruling from the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals regarding the case of Jasmine Michelle Irvin, who was convicted of First Degree Murder. Below is a summary of the key points from the opinion: ### Case Summary - **Appellant**: Jasmine Michelle Irvin - **Appellee**: State of Oklahoma - **Case Number**: F-2018-622 - **Court**: Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals - **Judge**: Cynthia Ferrell Ashwood - **Verdict**: Convicted of First Degree Murder - **Sentence**: Life in prison without the possibility of parole ### Facts of the Case - The victim, Robert Godwin, was found shot to death in a secluded area. - Evidence indicated that Appellant had expressed a desire to have the victim killed and had made attempts to recruit others to help. - Appellant contacted the victim, leading him to the location where he was killed. - The victim suffered multiple gunshot wounds to the back, and information from cell phone data supported the timeline of events leading to the murder. ### Legal Propositions 1. **Waiver of Jury Trial**: Appellant challenged whether she knowingly and intelligently waived her right to a jury trial. The court found that the waiver was clear and the trial court had adequately assessed her understanding of the waiver. 2. **Victim Impact Testimony**: Appellant contended that her due process rights were violated due to the admission of victim impact testimony from a non-family member. The court acknowledged the error but did not find it sufficient to warrant relief since the trial judge was presumed to consider only competent evidence in sentencing. 3. **Ineffective Assistance of Counsel**: Appellant alleged her counsel was ineffective for not ensuring her waiver of the jury trial was valid and for failing to object to the victim impact testimony. The court found no deficiency in counsel's performance. 4. **Accumulation of Errors**: The court addressed Appellant's claim that the cumulative errors denied her a fair trial. It was determined that since no reversible errors were found, the cumulative error claim lacked merit. ### Conclusion - The court affirmed the judgment and sentence of the district court, concluding there were no reversible errors present. - An additional concurrence discussed the standard of review for the waiver of jury trial but ultimately supported the affirmation of the conviction.
