The opinion

Annabelle Clinton Imber, Justice, dissenting. I agree with the majority on all points of appeal except for its conclusion with regard to the admissibility of Ken Edwards’s testimony. With regard to the latter, I must join the dissent’s conclusion that Mr. Edwards’s testimony was inadmissible under Ark. R. Evid. 404(b).
