WILLIAM HENRY III, Defendant- Missouri Cases

William Henry III appealed his conviction for assault of corrections officers and armed criminal action, arguing the trial court erred by admitting video evidence of a fellow inmate having a seizure and by denying his motion to dismiss for a speedy trial violation. The appellate court affirmed the judgment, finding no outcome-determinative prejudice from the video's admission given the overwhelming evidence of guilt. The court also determined that Henry's constitutional right to a speedy trial was not violated, weighing the Barker factors against him due to his contribution to delays and late assertion of the right.
