Moreta v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed Jose Moreta's convictions for murder and related offenses. It held that the accomplice's Facebook post was not hearsay because it was offered to establish the relationship between Moreta and the accomplice, rather than the truth of the post's statements, and that the prosecutor's challenged summation remarks did not constitute plain error. The Court also noted that the trial court's alternative discussion of the co-conspirator hearsay exception was unnecessary to its ruling.
