Description

On January 29, 1980, defendant was convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to death. On appeal, this Court affirmed the conviction of first degree murder but reversed the death penalty and remanded for a resentencing hearing. State v. Adkins, 653 S.W.2d 708 (Tenn.1983). In October 1984, a resentencing hearing was held and the jury again assessed the death penalty. The trial Judge granted defendants motion for a new sentencing hearing for error in advising that jury that the first jury had imposed the death penalty. The third sentencing hearing was held in June 1985. It also resulted in a sentence of death. On this appeal, defendant asserts errors allegedly committed at that hearing. We find that no errors were committed and affirm the sentence of death.
