United States v. Yahweh Ben Yahweh

792 F.Supp 104 (S.D. Fla. 1992)

Facts

Yahweh Ben Yahweh (D) was a religious leader. He and some of his followers were indicted on various charges, including assault, arson, and murder. The government (P) wanted to introduce several pictures of the victims as evidence. These pictures were blown up to 30 x 40. P argued that these photographs were relevant as to the identification of the victim. D argued that the enlarged photographs should not be admitted because they were prejudicial.
