How later courts describe this case

• reaching unpreserved claims of error in form of judgment despite argument that death sentence would render issue moot
• stating: “A stipulation is a declaration that the fact agreed upon is proven[, and a] valid stipulation must be enforced according to its terms”
• failure of the General Assembly to change the law which has been interpreted by courts creates presumption that interpretation was in accordance with legislative intent
• when a single offer of proof contains both admissible and inadmissible evidence, it is not error to reject the entire offer
• “[W]hen a single offer of proof contains admissible and inadmissible evidence, the trial court does not err if it rejects the entire offer.”
• “A stipulation is a declaration that the fact agreed upon is proven, and a valid stipulation must be enforced according to its terms.”
• exposure of the defendant’s tattoos to be photographed did not raise an issue of self-incrimination
• “This court long has held that, when a single offer of proof contains admissible and inadmissible evidence, the trial court does not err if it rejects the entire offer.”
