Cited to Support

May's allegation that the prosecution has a constitutional duty to disclose favorable evidence in its possession or the possession of its agents to the defense. Brady v. Maryland is cited to establish that due process requires the disclosure of material exculpatory evidence possessed by the State, irrespective of good faith or bad faith. May relies upon Brady as the constitutional foundation for his request that the Court compel disclosure of exculpatory and related Giglio material maintained by the prosecution and the law enforcement agencies involved in the investigation of his case.
