concurring.
While I concur in the opinion of Chief Justice Exum, I do not abandon my dissent on the basis that this defendant did not receive a fair and impartial trial. My reasons with respect thereto are set forth in State v. McKoy, 323 N.C. 1, 372 S.E.2d 12 (1988) (Frye, J., Exum, C.J., and Martin, J., dissenting).
