DENSON v. THE STATE.

(463 SE2d 107)

Sears, Justice.

The appellant, Judy Denson, was convicted of the malice murder and felony murder of Greg Page and of the crime of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. The trial court sentenced Denson to life in prison for malice murder, did not impose a sentence for felony murder,1 and sentenced her to a two-year prison term for the offense of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.2 We affirm.

1. The evidence would have authorized a rational trier of fact to conclude that Denson and the victim initially argued because Denson had begun dating a man other than a friend of the victim’s; that Den-son had threatened to kill the victim on the evening of the crime; and that when the victim pursued his disagreement with Denson by sticking his head in a narrow opening in her bedroom window, Denson shot the victim in the head without justification and under circumstances that would not constitute voluntary manslaughter. We conclude that the evidence is sufficient to satisfy Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U. S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560) (1979).

2. We have examined Denson’s remaining enumerations of error, and find that any possible error with regard to one of them is harmless,3 that Denson failed to properly preserve another,4 and that the *870rest have no merit.5
