Evidence – relevance — undue prejudice — harmless error
George A. Trinka appeals from a judgment convicting him of first-degree reckless homicide and first-degree recklessly endangering safety, both with the use of a dangerous weapon, following a jury trial. Trinka argues that the trial court erred when it allowed the State to introduce into evidence a family photograph depicting the victim, his wife, and his children. We affirm because we conclude that, even if the court did err, the error was harmless. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
