Supreme Court of Delaware

Tucker v. State

July 16, 2018

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed Tucker’s convictions, holding that the trial judge properly refused to instruct the jury that a photograph did not exist when the photograph had in fact been taken. The court further held that Tucker waived any entitlement to an alternative instruction directing the jury to disregard the detective’s testimony about the photograph by declining the judge’s invitation to propose that instruction.
