Question Presented (from Petition)
Whether the Petitioner's Fourteenth Amendment due process right to a fair trial was violated when the trial court allowed the State to inform the jury that thumb drives found during the search of the Petitioner's residence contained videos of the Petitioner and his adult girlfriend engaging in consensual sex – evidence that was (1) irrelevant and immaterial (i.e., evidence that had no probative value to any contested issue at trial) and (2) extremely inflammatory and prejudicial.
