Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Pottawattamie County, Richard H. Davidson, Judge. AFFIRMED. Heard by Bower, C.J., and Doyle and Schumacher, JJ. Opinion by Bower, C.J. (16 pages)

Vance Archilee Good appeals from his conviction for first-degree murder, contending there is insufficient evidence of robbery, malice aforethought, or premeditation to support the conviction. He also asserts the court abused its discretion in allowing a photograph of one of his tattoos to be viewed by the jury. Finally, he maintains the court erred in allowing “backdoor hearsay.” OPINION HOLDS: Because there is substantial evidence to support the conviction, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in admitting the photograph, and we are not persuaded that the so-called backdoor hearsay “undermined Good’s sole defense of self-defense” and denied him a fair trial, we affirm.
