COUNSEL FOR RESPONDENT
In 1991 deceased victim Margaret Torres, her skull crushed
with a piece of cement, was found behind a Hillsborough County
bar. DNA analysis of semen found inside her body matched Brett
Bogle, a man who had been dating the victim’s sister, Katie
Alfonso, and who was not known to be on good terms with the
victim. Bogle’s frequent arguments with Torres had grown more
violent as his relationship with Alfonso deteriorated. Two weeks
after Alfonso terminated their relationship, Bogle encountered
Torres inside Club 41, and some hours later her body was
discovered behind the bar. Part of the evidence linking Bogle to
the homicide included testimony from FBI Analyst Michael Malone,
who concluded that a pubic hair found on Bogle’s clothing could
have come from the victim. Post-trial mitochondrial DNA testing
confirmed Malone’s testimony.
Bogle has long been critical of the State’s hair comparison
evidence. Of particular relevance to the instant petition is
Bogle’s unsuccessful 1997 postconviction motion challenging the
validity of Malone’s conclusions. Florida’s high court affirmed
the postconviction court’s determination that the claim lacked
materiality, and this Court declined to grant certiorari review.
Some years later, the Justice Department released a memo in
2013 that harshly criticized Malone and suggested that his
testimony exceeded the bounds of science. Bogle filed a
successive postconviction motion citing to the 2013 report and
once again asserted, as he did in 1997, that Malone’s testimony
was unreliable. The postconviction Benes, noting that the two
claims were substantially the same, denied relief on procedural
grounds, a determination that the Florida Supreme Court
affirmed. Bogle now seeks certiorari review.
Bogle’s petition gives rise to the following questions
before this Honorable Court.

PARTIES TO THE PROCEEDINGS
The following were parties in the proceedings below:
1) Brett A. Bogle, Petitioner in this Court, was the
appellant below.
2) State of Florida, Respondent in this Court, was the
appellee below.
CITATION TO OPINION BELOW
The published opinion of the Florida Supreme Court is
reported at Bogle v. State, 288 So. 3d 1065 (Fla. 2019).
STATEMENT OF JURISDICTION
The judgment of the Florida Supreme Court was entered on
December 19, 2019, and Petitioner’s motion for rehearing was
denied on January 3, 2020. (Pet. Appendix A). Respondent submits
that any jurisdiction this Court may have over the Florida
Supreme Court arises out of 28 U.S.C. § 1254(1). However, this
Court’s jurisdiction is limited to federal constitutional issues
which were properly presented and considered by the Florida
Supreme Court below. Illinois v. Gates, 462 U.S. 213, 217-19
(1983); Webb v. Webb, 451 U.S. 493, 496-97 (1981). As will be
addressed more fully in the argument section of this brief, this
Court does not have jurisdiction over the questions presented in
Bogle’s petition because they arise entirely out of a claim that
was deemed untimely and procedurally barred by the state court
and there is no federal constitutional dimension.
CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY PROVISIONS INVOLVED
Respondent accepts Petitioner’s statement regarding the
applicable constitutional and statutory provisions involved.
STATEMENT OF THE CASE
Petitioner, Brett A. Bogle, a counselled Florida prisoner
under sentence of death for the murder of Margaret Torres, seeks
certiorari review of the Florida Supreme Court’s decision
affirming denial of Bogle’s successive postconviction claim
because it had already been rejected on the merits and was
therefore procedurally barred.
In Bogle v. State, 655 So. 2d 1103 (Fla. 1995), the Florida
Supreme Court provided the following summary of the facts:
Margaret Torres (the victim) was the sister of Katie
Alfonso and stayed at Alfonso's house four or five
nights a week. In June 1991, Bogle met Alfonso and
shortly thereafter he moved in with Alfonso and the
victim. Bogle and the victim did not get along and
Alfonso eventually asked Bogle to move out. The
following week, Bogle, Alfonso, the victim, and
another person went out together and things seemed to
be going better. During the outing, however, Bogle and
the victim began to argue again. Subsequently, Alfonso
and the victim refused to allow Bogle intc Alfonso's
house. Bogle then broke through the screen door of
Alfonso's house, grabbed Alfonso's neck to push her
out of the way, grabbed the victim's arm to remove the
telephone from her hand as she tried to call 911,
pulled the telephones out of the kitchen and bedroom,
and took clothing from the house. As he left the
house, Bogle told the victim that she would not live
to tell about it if she called the police and pressed
charges. In response to the victim's uncompleted call
to 911, a deputy sheriff arrived shortly after Bogle
left. The deputy referred the matter to the state
attorney's office. Several days later, Bogle called
Alfonso and again threatened the victim, stating that,
if the victim pressed charges, she would not live to
tell about it.
About two weeks later, Bogle called Alfonso to ask if
he could come over to her house. The victim was out
for the evening. When Alfonso told Bogle that he could
not come over, he became furious and hung up. Later
that night, Bogle and the victim ran into each other
at a bar called Club 41. Witnesses saw them talking
briefly. Witnesses also noticed that Bogle was clean
and had no noticeable injuries of any kind when he
arrived at Club 41. The victim left Club 41 at about 1
a.m.; Bogle left approximately five minutes later.
About forty-five minutes after that, Bogle approached
a car outside Club 41 and asked for a ride. At that
time, his forehead was scratched, his clothes were
dirty, and his crotch was wet.
The next day, the victim's nude and badly beaten body
was found outside an establishment located next to
Club 41. Her head had been crushed with a piece of
cement, and she had died of blows to the head.
Additionally, she had semen in her vagina and trauma
to her anus consistent with sexual activity that was
likely inflicted before death. The DNA extracted from
the semen was consistent with Bogle's DNA (12.5% of
Caucasian males could have contributed the semen), and
a pubic hair found on the crotch area of Bogle's pants
matched the victim's.
Bogle put on no evidence in his defense. The jury
found him guilty of burglary of Alfonso's home with
force, retaliation against the victim as a witness to
that burglary, and first-degree murder of the victim.
A penalty phase proceeding was held on the firstdegree murder conviction, and the jury recommended
death by a seven-to-five vote. The trial judge,
however, granted a new penalty phase proceeding after
determining that improper rebuttal evidence had been
presented by the State.
At the second penalty phase proceeding, the State
presented the same evidence it relied on in the guilt
phase. Bogle put on eight witnesses who testified that
Bogle had been subjected to physical and mental abuse
as a child, had used drugs at his father's urging from
the time he was five or six years old, was under the
influence of alcohol at the time of the murder, had a
personality disorder and suffered from some mental
4
disturbance at the time of the murder, was kind to
others, and had been injured in an automobile accident
a week before the murder. The jury recommended death
by a ten-to-two vote. The trial judge subsequently
sentenced Bogle to death, finding four aggravating
circumstances: (1) previous conviction of a violent
felony (burglary with force on Alfonso and the victim
two weeks before the murder); (2) the murder was
committed while engaged in the commission of a sexual
battery; (3) the murder was committed for the purpose
of avoiding arrest; and (4) the murder was heinous,
atrocious, or cruel (HAC). In mitigation, the trial
judge gave some weight to the statutory factor of
impaired capacity but stated that substantial
impairment had not been proven; gave substantial
weight to Bogle's family background; little weight to
his alcohol and drug abuse; gave some weight to his
good conduct during trial; gave some, but not a great
deal, of weight to his kindness to others; and gave no
weight to his involvement in an automobile accident.
Bogle also received consecutive sentences of life in
prison for the burglary-with-assault-or-battery
conviction and five years in prison for the
retaliation-against-a-witness conviction.
Bogle v. State, 655 So. 2d 1103, 1105-06 (Fla.), cert. denied,
516 U.S. 978 (1995).
Direct Appeal
The Florida Supreme Court affirmed his conviction and death
sentence in Bogle v. State, 655 So. 2d 1103 (Fla. 1995). This
Court denied certiorari review. Bogle v. Florida, 516 U.S. 578
(1995).
State Postconviction Proceedings
Bogle filed his initial postconviction motion in 1997. He
raised (among other things) a challenge to the FBI’s hair and
fiber expert Michael Malone, claiming that the State violated
Brady! when it failed to disclose Malone’s bench notes which, in
Bogle’s view, would have indicated a lack of precision in his
method. Florida’s high court affirmed the postconviction court’s
Order finding that the notes lacked materiality. Bogle v. State,
213 So. 2d 833, 844 (Fla. 2017). Certiorari review was denied.
Bogle v. Florida, 138 S. Ct 738 (2018).
Bogle’s next challenge to Malone’s testimony, filed in
2014, came after the U.S. Department of Justice, in a report
released in 2013, concluded that some of Malone’s' hair
comparison testimony was overstated and “exceeded the bounds of
science.” The lower court found that the DOJ’s new report
contained nothing that was not previously known to Bogle, any
flaws in Malone’s analysis and testimony lacked materiality, and
because Bogle could have pursued his 2014 claims in his first
postconviction motion, his successive claim was procedurally
barred under Florida law. The Florida Supreme Court agreed.
Bogle v. State, 288 So. 3d 1065 (Fla. 2019). Bogle now seeks
certiorari review.
1 Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963).
6
REASONS FOR DENYING THE WRIT
I.
Whether this Court should decline to review the
correctness of Florida’s decision to apply a state
procedural bar where an identical claim was previously
rejected on the merits?
Bogle advances two claims in his Petition. First, he
asserts that the Florida Supreme Court erred in rejecting on
procedural grounds his postconviction Giglio? and Brady claims.
Secondly, he contends that the State violated Brady by failing
to disclose impeachment evidence he could have used to challenge
the hair comparison testimony adduced at Bogle’s trial. Review
of both claims should be denied.
This Court reserves its certiorari jurisdiction primarily
to resolve conflicts among the United States courts of appeal
and state courts “concerning the meaning and provisions of
federal law.” Braxton v. United States, 500 U.S. 344, 348
(1991). Bogle’s argument is of extremely limited scope, does not
identify any federal or state court conflict, and instead
amounts to little more than his disagreement with the Florida
Supreme Court’s resolution of his postconviction claims. In
short, there is no federal constitutional question here and no
reason for this Court to grant review.
Cases that do not divide the federal or state courts or
2 Giglio v. United States, 405 U.S. 150 (1972).
7
that do not present important, unsettled questions of federal
law usually do not merit certiorari review. Rockford Life
Insurance Co. v. Illinois Dept. of Revenue, 482 U.S. 182, 184,
n. 3 (1987). See also Supreme Court Rule 10. None of these
considerations apply to the claims advanced by Bogle, however,
and his request for Certiorari review should be denied.
Bogle’s argument before this Court arises out of the
testimony of Michael Malone, an FBI hair comparison analyst who
testified that pubic hair found on Bogle’s pants was consistent
with and therefore could have come from the victim. The U.S.
Department of Justice (DOJ) conducted a review and in 1999
released a report critical of Malone. Among other things, the
DOJ concluded that Malone failed to adequately document his
analysis in his bench notes, thus calling into question the
scientific validity of his testimony. Bogle unsuccessfully
challenged Malone’s testimony in his initial postconviction
motion in 1997. When the DOJ released another report in 2013
indicating that Malone’s testimony overstated the significance
of his findings and “exceeded the bounds of science,” Bogle
sought to use it as the basis for a successive postconviction
claim. Review of the lower court’s rejection on procedural
grounds is the subject of the instant petition.
Florida rejected Bogle’s claim because it was procedurally
barred and lacked merit. Florida imposes strict limits on
successive postconviction motions, and prohibits a defendant
from advancing a claim that was raised, or could have been
raised, in a previous proceeding. In Bogle’s case, the court
found that he had already raised a substantially similar
challenge to Malone’s testimony in his initial postconviction
motion which was denied on the merits and affirmed on review.
See Bogle v. State, 213 So. 3d 833 (Fla. 2017) at 844. Florida
law does not permit Bogle to raise the same claim twice, and the
procedural bar was properly applied here. See Fla. R. Crim. P.
3.851(e) (2), Schwab v. State, 969 So. 2d 318 (Fla. 2007).
In the alternative, Florida’s high court also rejected
Bogle’s successive claim on the merits. As newly discovered
evidence, Florida requires the defense to establish that the new
evidence could not have been discovered with diligence at the
time of trial, and it must be of such a character that it would
likely produce an acquittal. Jones v. State, 701 So. 2d 512
(Fla. 1998). Bogle’s postconviction court found that the 2013
report did nothing more than amplify what was already known at
the time of his initial postconviction motion, and was not newly
discovered evidence. Bogle v. State, 288 So. 3d 1065 at 1068.
In rejecting Bogle’s subsidiary claim that the State also
violated Brady by failing to disclose the 2013 report, the
postconviction court noted that because it did not exist at the
time of Bogle’s trial, the DOJ report could not have been
suppressed or withheld by the State.
On review, Florida’s high court agreed, saying that the
2013 report merely documented the opinions of other DOJ experts
and was not evidence. And, the court found that Bogle’s claim
lacked materiality. While Malone testified that the pubic hair
found on Bogle’s pants was consistent with and therefore could
have come from the victim, Malone also admitted on cross that
hair comparison cannot be used as a basis for establishing
“absolute personal identification.” The Florida Supreme Court
found that while the 2013 report criticized Malone for
overstating the significance of his findings as a means of
identifying the source of a given strand of hair, his crossexamination testimony redeemed him. Indeed, the 2013 report did
little more than amplify Malone’s cross examination testimony.
And Bogle suffered no prejudice. While he complains about the
alleged flaws in Malone’s hair analysis that linked him to the
murder, he inexplicably ignores the fact that his semen was
found in the victim’s body. The Florida Supreme Court found the
DNA evidence to be strongly persuasive. The presence of his DNA,
the Court concluded, “overwhelms the significance of Malone's
testimony” in terms of establishing Bogle’s guilt. Bogle v.
10
State, 288 So. 3d at 1069.
Bogle also spends considerable time complaining about what
he calls the “false and misleading” hair analysis testimony, and
he infers that but for Malone, he would not have been found
guilty or sentenced to death. Bogle ignores the fact that posttrial testing of the pubic hair’s mitochondrial DNA confirmed
that the hair found on Bogle’s pants was consistent with having
come from the victim. If Bogle were retried without Malone, the
mitochondrial DNA still establishes that the hair most likely
came from the victim. A copy of the test results is attached as
Appendix A. As Malone told Bogle’s jury, microscopic hair
analysis is not as conclusive as fingerprinting, but narrows the
field of individuals from whom the hair could have come.
Mitochondrial DNA is similarly not conclusive, but is the
functional equivalent of Malone’s analysis and equally probative
of Bogle’s guilt.
Bogle next faults the Florida Supreme Court for failing to
consider all admissible evidence in assessing the strength of
his newly discovered evidence claim. Bogle, perhaps
deliberately, ignores express language in the Florida high
court’s opinion that a correct evaluation of Bogle’s newly
discovered evidence claim requires consideration of all
admissible evidence that could be introduced in the event of a
11
retrial. Bogle, 288 So. 3d at 1069. While the opinion does not
contain any specific discussion of evidence, it is incorrect to
say that the court failed to consider the admissible evidence in
denying Bogle’s claim, particularly when the Court’s recitation
of the applicable law documents the analysis used in assessing
the strength of Bogle’s claim. Bogle’s complaint in this regard
lacks merit.
Bogle’s argument before this Court merely reflects his
personal disagreement with the Florida Supreme Court’s
resolution of his claim. The lower court correctly applied this
Court’s precedent and to the extent that it relied upon Florida
law to reject Bogle’s claims, did not violate his constitutional
rights. Certiorari review is not warranted here.
Il.
Whether Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963) mandates
relief where the information in question, the DOJ’s
2013 review of Malone’s testimony, did not exist at
the time of Bogle’s 1992 trial, was never withheld
from the defense by the State, and in any event did
not prejudice Bogle?
In his second claim, Bogle asserts that the State violated
Brady v. Maryland when it failed to timely disclose the 2013 DOJ
report. In rejecting this claim, the Court concluded not only
that the claim was procedurally barred under Florida law, but
also that the 2013 report contained nothing substantive that was
12
not previously known at the time Bogle advanced his initial
postconviction motion. The Court specifically noted a DOJ report
released in 1999 that strongly criticized Malone for failing to
document his analysis; indeed, the DOJ found, his bench notes
were so inadequate that it was impossible to assess whether his
analysis was scientifically reliable.
Significantly, Bogle’s initial postconviction claim
asserted that counsel was ineffective for failing to secure
Malone’s bench notes and take other steps to impeach Malone’s
reliability. Bogle v. State, 213 So. 3d 833 (Fla. 2017). His
2014 claim merely restated his earlier one by citing to the 2013
report’s criticism that Malone’s testimony that hair found on
Bogle’s pants “matched” known hair belonging to the victim; this
testimony, according to the 2013 report, “exceeded the bounds of
science.”
Even if this Court were to conclude that Bogle’s 2014
motion contained new claims, Florida’s high court found that the
1999 DOJ report adequately outlined the flaws in Malone’s work
product, was in Bogle’s possession at the time of his initial
postconviction motion,? and provided the basis for every argument
advanced in his 2014 postconviction motion. In short, to the
3. The postconviction court also found that Bogle received the
2013 DOJ report in September of the same year it was released.
Any prejudice that Bogle claims to have suffered because the
State allegedly suppressed or withheld it is de minimus.
13
extent that any new claims were raised, Bogle could have drafted
and filed the motion at issue here while his initial
postconviction motion was still under consideration.
Accordingly, Bogle’s assertion that the State’s alleged
delay in providing him with the 2013 report fails because Bogle
has not established that he was prejudiced. And, regardless of
when he actually received it, Bogle could not advance the claim
raised in his 2014 motion under Florida law because it amounted
to nothing more than a restatement of previous argument. For
that reason, Florida’s correct determination that Bogle’s 2014
motion was procedurally barred similarly precludes a finding
that the State violated Brady; if Bogle was barred from raising
the claim because it was available but omitted from his initial
1997 postconviction motion, he suffered no prejudice even if we
were to agree that the State withheld the 2013 report.
On this record, the Florida Supreme Court's application of
Brady and Giglio was correct. Even if this Court were inclined
to grant review, Bogle’s claims would require this Court to
engage in fact-specific examination of a routine and meritless
claim focusing primarily on how Florida applied its own state
law regarding procedural bars. The law is well-settled that this
Court does not grant certiorari “to review evidence and discuss
specific facts.” United States v. Johnston, 268 U.S. 220, 227
14
(1925); Texas v. Mead, 465 U.S. 1041 (1984). This Court is
“consistent in not granting the certiorari except in cases
involving principles, the settlement of which is of importance
to the public as distinguished from that of the parties.” Rice
v. Sioux City Memorial Park Cemetery, Inc., 349 U.S. 70 (1955).
Accordingly, Bogle’s request for certiorari review should be
rejected.
15
CONCLUSION
Based on the foregoing, Respondent respectfully requests
that this Court deny the petition for writ of certiorari.
