How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that defense suggested that witness’s “trial testimony lacked veracity and had been fabricated” where cross-examination elicited that portions of the witness’s “testimony on direct were inconsistent with what he had told defense counsel in an earlier interview”
  • even assuming that trial court erroneously admitted a witness’s prior consistent statement, the admission was harmless because evidence of guilt was overwhelming
  • prior consistent statement admissible where cross-examination raised possibility of recent fabrication
