Description

{1} Defendant Robert Macias was convicted of first degree murder (willful and deliberate) and shooting at a motor vehicle resulting in great bodily harm. He appealed to this Court, claiming, among other things, that "[t]he trial court admitted . . . out-of-court statements contained in recorded calls when there was no foundation establishing any exception to the [hearsay] rule[s] of exclusion." Because we conclude that the trial court erred in admitting the hearsay statements and that the error was not harmless, we vacate Defendants convictions and remand for a new trial.
