The trial judge did not err in refusing to discharge the jury because the witness's statement was speculative, made by an aggrieved relative and unsupported by evidence, and the judge gave immediate, clear and repeated directions including reference to the autopsy/toxicology report which removed any real prejudice; appellate court will not interfere with the trial judge's discretion absent clear miscarriage.
