Giglio v. United States focuses on information that can be used to impeach a witness’s credibility. The ruling requires the prosecution to disclose to the defense any evidence that could undermine a witness’s truthfulness or show bias or incentives to lie—such as prior dishonest acts or deals with authorities. This is exactly why the option describing lying or unethical behavior that could affect a witness’s ability to testify aligns with Giglio: it captures the impeachment material that must be disclosed so the defense can assess credibility. The other choices miss the point, since they relate to counsel rights, proving credibility as a blanket standard, or the exclusionary rule, none of which address the disclosure of impeachment information Giglio mandates.
