Hearsay by Victor Vieth, NCPTC Executive Director
April 15, 2010 / NCPTC Webinar
In child abuse cases, the admission of a child’s hearsay statements is often critical to the prosecutor’s case. In light of Crawford and the thousands of cases that have struggled to interpret the evolving standard of “testimonial”, the admission of these statements is more difficult, but seldom impossible. To be successful, the prosecutor must continually search the rules of evidence and constitutional history. If a prosecutor is willing to put in the effort, a just result will often follow.
