How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding the forensic interviewer “vouched for the minor when she testified only to those characteristics [that] she observed in the minor”
- stating that to avoid vouching, the proper method for admitting expert testimony on the behavioral characteristics of sexual abuse victims is to call an independent expert
- concluding a trial court's qualification of a witness as an expert in forensic interviewing was an error because South Carolina courts do not recognize this type of expertise
- holding section 17-23-175 did not violate the Confrontation Clause of the Sixth Amendment
- holding \testimony of the factors that are relevant to the trial court's determination whether the interviewee's statement is trustworthy is not appropriate for the jury\ because it is improper bolstering of a minor's credibility
- holding Section 17-23-175 is not violative of the Sixth Amendment's Confrontation Clause
