Question Presented (from Petition)

Whether Mr. Beasley was deprived of his fundamental constitutional rights under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, the Compulsory Process, and the Confrontational Clauses of the Sixth Amendment of an opportunity to present a complete defense, when the Government refused to immunize a crucial witness that it had no intent to prosecute, thereby improperly depriving Mr. Beasley of the crucial testimony.

Whether the admission of irrelevant and prejudicial evidence of an uncharged count was so egregious as to render Mr. Beasley's trial fundamentally unfair.

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the Government violated a defendant's Sixth Amendment rights to compulsory process and confrontation by refusing to immunize a crucial witness it had no intent to prosecute, thereby depriving the defendant of essential defense testimony, and whether admission of irrelevant and prejudicial evidence of an uncharged count rendered the trial fundamentally unfair
