How later courts described this case
- Expert opinion as to the reliability of a sexual abuse victim’s perception and recall held to be inadmissible as invading the province of the jury
Written by the judges who cited it.
The opinion
David Newbern, Judge, concurring. Although I concur in the result reached, I cannot agree with that part of the majority opinion which characterizes the defense counsel’s cross examination of the prosecuting witness as “hounding and badgering” and “picayune.”
Chief Judge Wright joins in this concurring opinion.
