OPINION
Justice NIGRO.
Following a jury trial, Appellant Billy Brooks was found guilty of first-degree murder and possession of an instrument of crime ("PIC"). The jury returned a verdict of death, and on January 23, 1992, the trial court formally imposed the death sentence. Appellant filed post-sentence motions, which the trial court denied. This direct appeal followed, and we now reverse and remand the matter for a new trial.
