Cited to Support

May's allegation that post-conviction litigation in State v. Jamie Lamont Smith involved claims concerning the preservation, destruction, and availability of prosecutorial records relevant to a Batson challenge. According to the source cited in the SMAR, counsel reviewing the prosecution's files found significant absences in materials related to jury selection, including prosecutor notes, juror questionnaires, criminal-record-check information, and other documents that could reveal prosecutorial motives for peremptory strikes. May relies upon the Smith litigation to support his claim that the destruction or unavailability of jury-selection records was not limited to a single Buncombe County capital case and that similar issues allegedly affected multiple prosecutions handled by the Buncombe County District Attorney's Office.
