Summary
This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE) dated August 10, 2022, recording a sidebar conference during the redirect of witness A. Farmer. The Judge and defense attorney Ms. Menninger discuss a legal ruling concerning whether the defense 'opened the door' to certain testimony regarding the characterization of 'handholding' versus 'sexual abuse' on a victim's compensation form. Menninger argues she was prevented from asking about the witness's prior statements to law enforcement where the witness allegedly claimed she did not remember the touches being sexualized.
