How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that videotaped interview between child and investigator was admissible
- hearsay statements to SRS caseworker and police officer were taken for purposes of investigation, not for preparation of legal action
- interview with police after four preliminary SRS interviews still within “the investigatory stage”
- “Where the child’s testimony against a potential defendant is clear and consistent and further interviews simply repeat or preserve what has already been said, the only reasonable view may be that preparing legal proceedings was the primary focus.”
