Deville v. State, No. 4D04-1375, COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, FOURTH DISTRICT, January 18, 2006, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Given a lock pick set's negligible relevance to a material fact, the trial court abused its discretion in admitting it into evidence. It was not found geographically close to the scene of the crime, nor was it discovered in temporal proximity of the crime. The error was not harmless, as the evidence against defendant was circumstantial.
