Description

Submitted: December 8, 2004 ORDER This 18th day of January, 2005, on consideration of the parties' briefs, it appears to the Court that: 1.

We find that Holland was not prejudiced because the prosecutor ultimately linked his comments to the evidence presented at trial. Accordingly, we affirm.
