An appeal for a new trial by convicted murderer Claron Carter was denied today by the Georgia Supreme Court, but he will return to be sentenced on further charges.

Carter filed the appeal claiming the evidence presented at his trial was insufficent to support the jury’s verdict. The Supreme Court upheld the verdict and life sentence, but added the trial court judge failed to sentence him separately for armed robbery and burglary charges for which he was also found guilty.

Carter was convicted in March of 2015 and sentenced to life without parole for the 2013 murder of Daquavious Reed, who was found dead on July 11 of that year inside a residence on East Ward St., the victim of two gunshot wounds. Carter is one of three individuals originallycharged with the crime.

The Georgia Supreme Court’s opinion regarding Carter’s appeal can be viewed here.
