No, but this is not the first time this defense has tried to stretch their case beyond established legal principles and procedure.
Thanks for your answers regarding this topic.
I have 2 additional questions.
1) is there any recourse for the state / victims family when DT acts in such a manner?
2) why would JSS allow a new witness at this point? especially given the argument that the state introduced new evidence on rebuttal? They didn't as the diagnosis and conclusions drawn by the state's witness were well know by the DT before she ever took the stand. And lastly, if JSS allows this, does this sort of maneuvering become "a precedent?"
Thank you.
