Question juridique clé
Whether the daughter's later letter constituted a new and serious ground for revision under Art. 410 CPP / Art. 385 CP.
Solution extraite
The letter could qualify as new evidence, but the appellant failed to show that it was serious enough to undermine the conviction.
Motifs extraits
A post-judgment statement is not excluded as new merely because it was made later; however, the appellant made only appellatory arguments and did not demonstrate arbitrariness in the cantonal court’s assessment that the recantation, in light of the corroborating evidence, was not capable of changing the outcome.
