How later courts describe this case

• finding the evidence sufficient to prove premeditation where the accused entered the bank with a concealed, loaded gun, approached the victim, and then shot him from close range
• defendant could not challenge on appeal the admissibility of evidence because he failed to object to that evidence in the circuit court and, therefore, his objection was waived
• "Unless a defendant has made a timely motion for a cautionary instruction or for a mistrial, we will not consider his assignments of error alleging that improper remarks were made by the prosecutor."
