United States Eighth Circuit

Grant of a petition for writ of habeas corpus in a first-degree murder case is reversed where petitioner was not entitled to habeas relief under the "contrary to" or "unreasonable application" provisions of 28 U.S.C. section 2254(d)(1) as the allegedly suppressed evidence, when considered collectively, does not require a conclusion that petitioner's due process rights were violated.
