State v. Goins, 232 N.C. App. 451 (Feb. 18, 2014)

The court rejected the defendant’s 404(b) challenge to evidence elicited by the State that a witness corresponded by mail with the defendant when he was in prison. The fact of “recent incarceration, in and of itself” does not constitute evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or acts within the meaning of the rule.
