How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that evidence of defendant’s earlier abuse of her child was admissible to show intent and prejudice did not outweigh probative value
  • admitting evidence that defendant mistreated child prior to a five-year absence, to demonstrate malice, hatred, and intent to harm child, in prosecution that the defendant endangered the child's welfare after he returned to the defendant's custody
  • finding there was no need for a specific unanimity instruction because “[t]here was but one theory of ongoing emotional and physical abuse over a period of time, which consisted of a number of ‘conceptually similar acts committed by the defendant’”
  • “Abused or neglect child means a child . . . whose parent or guardian . . . inflicts . . . physical injury . . . which causes or creates a substantial risk of protracted impairment of physical or emotional health.”
