Washington v. Mississippi

A jury found Cortaia Washington guilty of intimidating a witness in violation of Mississippi Code Section 97-9-55. The circuit court sentenced Washington to serve two years in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections, with two months suspended and credit for time served. The circuit court denied Washington’s post-trial motions, and she appealed, challenging the weight of the evidence. Finding no reversible error, the Mississippi Supreme Court affirmed.
