“[T]hat was one of the reasons that the State said [Ray S.] practically told us that he wasn’t going to believe, not that strongly, but he practically told us that if we call this guy, no chance he was going to believe him. Is that based on race, or on the fact that [Ray S.] said, “I am not going to believe it.” There is a reason in that case to excuse him, other than race.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. Mayes v. Premo“• Walking-Eagle and Hall hatched the scheme at Anna’s house. Washington, Knight, and Mayes arrived at Anna’s house together and went to Walking-Eagle’s room to discuss the robbery. They planned that Hall would pretend to want to buy marijuana, but then would open the door for the others. The men armed themselves with guns stored in Anna’s house.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. Mayes v. Premo“[Ray S.] did express considerable concern about the plea deal.... But I am holding that at this point the defendant has not established a prima facie case of peremptory challenge upon the basis of race, and even if it had, [Ray S.] did express this rather strong opinion about a potential witness of the State, namely a codefendant.”
