Syllabus

CONSTITUTIONAL LAW/CRIMINAL – AUTOMOBILES/CRIMINAL – EVIDENCE: The trial court erred in dismissing defendant's traffic charges after holding that the police violated defendant's due-process rights by failing to turn over video evidence from defendant's traffic stop: defendant did not meet his burden to show that the video was materially exculpatory where the video had been lost as a result of a system malfunction and no one had viewed the video and the police did not act in bad faith in failing to turn over the video.
