What is the state of the law on "outrageous government conduct"?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Aldrete, 980 F.2d 738 (9th Cir. 1992):
We also reject appellants' assertion that the district court abused its discretion in refusing to grant their motion for a mistrial after the government elicited testimony on their post-arrest silence. The court's clear and thorough instructions to the jury to disregard the testimony, delivered the morning after the testimony was given, obviated the possibility of a due process violation. See Greer v. Miller, 483 U.S. 756, 764 (1987).
