PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - Maine’s supreme court has affirmed the conviction of a Maine man who fatally shot a man in 2014 and then fled the state.
Abdirahman Haji-Hassan (ab-deer-RAH’-mun HAH’-jee-huh-san), of Portland, contended the trial judge erred by limiting some testimony and in instructions to the jury.
The Maine Supreme Judicial Court rejected his appeal on Thursday.
