May's allegation that defense counsel argued Joseph Cullen's excluded testimony demonstrated
hostility and malice between Darrell Godfrey and Valerie Riddle shortly before the murders; that
prosecutors opposed admission of the evidence; that defense counsel sought to make an
additional offer of proof through Dr. Ram Raheja; and that the trial court ruled Cullen's testimony
inadmissible as hearsay. May relies upon these proceedings to support his claim that evidence
bearing upon Godfrey's motive, credibility, and potential involvement in the crimes was withheld
from the jury
