Kenneth Beck was convicted of first-degree murder and armed criminal action by the Circuit Court of Montgomery County and sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. He appealed the judgment, arguing insufficient evidence to demonstrate he acted with deliberation. After reviewing the parties' briefs and the appeal record, the court found no legal error. The decision was affirmed according to Rule 30.25(b), and the parties received a memorandum outlining the facts and reasons for the order, although no formal written opinion was issued as no jurisprudential purpose warranted it.
