Description
Appellant asserts in his first proposition of law that he was denied his constitutional right to a fair capital trial due to the introduction of evidence of unadjudicated crimes from other jurisdictions. During the trial the prosecution introduced evidence of approximately ten other criminal acts. The purpose of presenting this evidence was twofold. First, the state's burden of proof on the first death-penalty specification was to show a "course of conduct" on the part of the defendant involving the killing or attempted killing of two or more persons. Second, the evidence was introduced pursuant to R.C. 2945.59 to prove identity by showing that the appellant had used a similar "scheme, plan, or system" in committing other acts.
