Hooper appealed her convictions for first-degree murder and armed criminal action following a jury trial. Hooper argued the trial court erred by denying her motion to dismiss, which alleged a Sixth Amendment violation due to recorded attorney-client phone calls, and challenged the sufficiency of the evidence for her convictions. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's judgment, finding Hooper failed to prove the existence of attorney-client privilege or prejudice, and that sufficient evidence supported the convictions, rejecting her reliance on an outdated circumstantial evidence rule.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","evidence","appellate-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=125393","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-of-missouri-respondent-v-lisa-d-hooper-appellant-d35025","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":36,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: criminal"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
