Description
Defendant appeals the denial of his Batson challenge after this court remanded to the trial court pursuant to State v. Parker, 836 S.W.2d 930, 939 [12] (Mo. banc 1992), to determine whether the prosecutor exercised his peremptory strikes in a racially discriminatory manner. State v. Christian, 847 S.W.2d 179, 181 [1] (Mo. App. 1993). We found the trial court was required to ask the prosecutor for his explanations for striking two African-American venirepersons before determining whether the strikes were racially motivated. Id. On appeal, Defendant argues the trial court erred in overruling his objection, pursuant to Batson v. Kentucky, 476 U.S. 79, 106 S. Ct. 1712, 90 L. Ed. 2d 69 (1986), to the State's strike of Venireperson Barbara Jackson because ""the State's explanation for the strike was legally insufficient, and the explanation was a pretextual reason for a racially motivated strike.""
