Maldonado and Maldonado-Quinone v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed both defendants' sentences, holding that the Superior Court did not sentence either defendant with a closed mind or improperly fail to consider mitigating circumstances. The sentences were within the statutory maximums, and the record supported the aggravating factors and the imposition of K time; any consideration of an aggravating factor embedded in the child-abuse offense was harmless. No separate opinions were filed.
