ABSTRACT
Linking testimony of murder cases has been admitted at trial and upheld under appellate scrutiny in the United States numerous times. ose adjudicated cases are State of Louisiana v. Nathaniel Code (1994), State of Delaware v. Steven Pennell (1989), State of California v. Cleophus Prince (1992), and State of Washington v. George Russell (1994). Also, in State of Washington v. Robert Parker (Keppel, 2000), the court refused to permit a required separation of charges in a pre-trial hearing. is decision was based in part on signature murder testimony about two linked murders.
