Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether a habeas applicant has 'failed to develop the factual basis' of a claim under 28 U.S.C. § 2254(e)(2) when the state court did not hold an evidentiary hearing

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

(2) Whether, as a matter of law, uniformed police officers attending the trial of a person accused of killing a police officer must actively create a disturbance before their collective presence in a courtroom can create inherent prejudice to a defendant’s right to a fair trial? ii
