2024Held: The defendant’s due process claim that the police failed to preserve the contents of a certain clothes hamper, which was predicated on his claim that the police failed to seize that hamper, failed as a matter of law, as the failure by the police to collect and preserve that evidence did not implicate the defendant’s right to due process pursuant to State v. Morales ( 232 Conn. 707 ).

2019In Morales, our Supreme Court addressed the following two issues: ‘‘(1) what degree of protection the due process clause of our state constitution offers to criminal defendants when the police fail to preserve potentially useful evi- dence, and (2) what remedy should follow if the defen- dant has established that a failure to preserve such evidence has violated his state constitutional rights.’’ Id., 713 .

Geisler, 222 Conn. 672 , 684–86, 610 A.2d 1225 (1992), we deem abandoned any state constitutional due process claim.
