Evid.R. 901(A) authentication admissibility hearsay Evid.R. 801(C) present sense impression Evid.R. 803(1) excited utterance Evid.R. 803(2) prior inconsistent statement Evid.R. 607. The trial court abused its discretion in admitting the victim's statements in the 911 tape and the body camera video because the statements were inadmissible hearsay. The victim's statements did not fall under the present sense impression or excited utterance hearsay exceptions, and were not properly admitted as prior inconsistent statements.
