Hemme, convicted of capital murder in 1985, sought a writ of habeas corpus, which the habeas court granted, vacating her conviction. The State of Missouri, through the Attorney General, then filed an original proceeding in certiorari to review the habeas record, alleging several irregularities. The appellate court refused to quash the habeas record, affirming the habeas court's decision that Hemme's due process rights were violated by the suppression of exculpatory evidence and the unreliability of her confession, thereby vacating her conviction and ordering her discharge subject to retrial.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","evidence","appellate-procedure","civil-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"vacated","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=213774","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-of-missouri-ex-rel-andrew-bailey-v-the-honorable-ryan-w-horsman-cir-d87305","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":42,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
