Is there any case law or precedent for the use of deceptive or reprehensible methods to persuade either the court or the jury to convict?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Lucatero, B227047 (Cal. App. 2011):
In sum, the prosecutor's comments did not constitute "'"'the use of deceptive or reprehensible methods to attempt to persuade either the court or the jury,'"'" nor did they "'infect the trial with such unfairness as to make the conviction a denial of due process." (People v. Samayoa, supra, 15 Cal.4th at p. 841.) Appellant's argument is without merit.
