INTERVIEWS
The defendant appeals his conviction
on two Felonious Sexual Assault
charges arguing that the trial court
erred in allowing the State to play
the video recording of the victim’s
interview at the Children’s Advocacy
Center for the jury. The defendant
contends that the passage of time as
well as a lay attempt to record the
victim’s account after she first
disclosed the assault to her mother
made the Children's Advocacy Center
statement more prejudicial than
probative. The defendant also
argues that playing the entire
video recording was not a narrowly
tailored, logically relevant
response to his challenge to the
victim’s credibility. The NH
Supreme Court ruled that the trial
court’s decision to admit the whole
tape is sustainable, and they were
not persuaded by the defendant’s
claim of prejudice. Case affirmed.
