Supreme Court of Delaware

Daniels v. State

December 8, 2014

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Daniels's second motion for postconviction relief. It held that his claims were procedurally barred or waived and, alternatively, that he failed to establish a colorable miscarriage of justice because he showed neither deficient performance producing concrete prejudice nor a material nondisclosure. The court also concluded that the alleged evidence concerning an alternative motive was unlikely to have affected the trial outcome.
