Supreme Judicial Court of Maine

State of Maine v. Daniel P. Warner

August 17, 2023301 A.3d 763

Summary

The Maine Supreme Judicial Court affirmed Daniel P. Warner’s conviction for unlawful sexual contact, holding that the prosecutor’s closing‑argument remarks about the victim’s motive, the trial court’s jury instruction on motive, and the court’s handling of a juror’s COVID‑19 exposure did not constitute obvious error. The Court found no reversible prejudice from any of the alleged errors.
