Does a prosecutor's performance at a sexual assault trial affect the outcome of the trial?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Strawther v. Grounds, No. 2:13-cv-1357-MCE-EFB P (E.D. Cal. 2015):

Upon examination of the entire proceedings, this court concludes that the prosecutor's performance did not "so infect[ ] the trial with unfairness as to make the resulting conviction a denial of due process.'" Johnson v. Sublett, 63 F.3d 926, 929 (9th Cir. 1995) (citation omitted). Accordingly, petitioner is not entitled to relief on this claim.
