Description
1. "In a prosecution for first-degree murder, the State must submit jury instructions which distinguish between the two categories of first-degree murder-- willful, deliberate, and premeditated murder and felony-murder-- if, under the facts of the particular case, the jury can find the defendant guilty of either category of first-degree murder. When the State also proceeds against the defendant on the underlying felony, the verdict forms provided to the jury should also reflect the foregoing distinction so that, if a guilty verdict is returned, the theory of the case upon which the jury relied will be apparent." Syl. pt. 9, State v. Giles, 183 W.Va. 237, 395 S.E.2d 481 (1990).
