Abbatiello v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed Abbatiello's convictions, holding that the prosecutor did not substantially interfere with his ability to present alibi witnesses and that the prosecutor's challenged closing arguments did not warrant reversal under plain-error review. The court concluded that the warning about potential perjury charges was truthful and permissible, and that any isolated vouching comment was not sufficiently prejudicial in light of the substantial independent evidence of guilt.
