P. v. Blackwell
Appellant William Blackwell appeals from his convictions of murder and attempted murder. He contends that the trial court erred in denying his motion to sever the two murder charges that arose from separate incidents. He also contends that the reading of preliminary hearing testimony deprived him of his constitutional right to confrontation and that an in camera hearing with only counsel present deprived him of his rights to confrontation, effective assistance of counsel, and an impartial jury. Finally, he contends that the trial court erred in admitting evidence of threats and violence against a witness. We find no prejudice from the joint trial and no confrontation violation, and appellant's remaining contentions have not been preserved for review. Court thus affirm the judgment.
