A Muscogee County jury convicted Robert Jackson of felony murder and possession of a firearm in the commission of a crime for his role in the shooting death of Geandre Maxwell.1 On appeal, Jackson contends that the evidence was insufficient to sustain the jury’s verdict. Because the evidence was sufficient to sustain the verdict, we affirm.
The evidence presented at trial showed that on the evening of September 30, 2000, Maxwell and some acquaintances were gambling in his trailer home in Columbus, Georgia. Robert Jackson, his brother Demarcus Jackson, and Marlon Minster showed up later that evening and joined the game. Shortly thereafter, Robert Jackson left the trailer, retrieved something from his car, and returned to the game. He then produced a gun and told everyone in the trailer to drop their money.
As Jackson was gathering the money, Maxwell turned to run toward the back of the trailer. J ackson shot Maxwell in the back of the head, killing him. Jackson and his two companions then retreated to Jackson’s car, counted the stolen money, and ñed. Jackson was arrested a few days later in South Carolina.
Jackson testified that he acted in self-defense after Maxwell pointed a gun at him. Police found unused shells, as well as an inoperable magazine for a handgun, in the back of Maxwell’s trailer. But all the other witnesses, including Jackson’s brother, testified that at the time of the shooting, Maxwell did not possess a gun and posed no threat to Jackson whatsoever. It is the role of the jury, not this Court, to resolve conflicts in the evidence.2 Accordingly, after reviewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the jury’s verdict, we conclude that there was sufficient evidence for a rational trier of fact to find Jackson guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of felony murder and possession of a firearm in the commission of a crime.3
Judgment affirmed.
