    Concluding that the defendant had failed to show prejudice where he had "not shown a reasonable probability that the immunity motion would have been granted"

    The aggravated assault conviction then supports the conviction for felony murder because there was clear evidence Worley died as a result of the shooting, as well as possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony. See Jackson v. Virginia , 443 U.S. 307, 324 (III) (B), 99 S.Ct. 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979) ; Waddell v. State , 261 Ga. 529 (1), 407 S.E.2d 742 (1991). (b) Goodson’s justification argument must also fail. Although several witnesses testified that Worley was known to carry a pistol in his pocket, other witnesses testified they never saw Worley with a pistol.
