Washington V. Massey

Barry Massey, a juvenile, appeals his aggravated first degree murder conviction. He argues that the juvenile court should have retained jurisdiction; that he was unable to intelligently waive his Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights prior to confessing; and that the testimony concerning his partner's confession and other crimes was improperly excluded. He also argues that  there was insufficient evidence to support a conviction and that life without possibility of parole constitutes cruel and unusual punishment. We affirm.
