Syllabus

The trial court erred in overruling appellant's Crim.R. 33 new-trial motion. The trial court violated appellant's due-process right to a fair trial by improperly evaluating the credibility of her trial testimony based on its prior out-of-court observations of her behavior. Judgment reversed and remanded for a new trial.
