STATE of Louisiana
v.
Jeffery Lynn JONES

No. 2018-KO-1828

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

April 15, 2019

ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE COURT OF APPEAL, THIRD CIRCUIT, PARISH OF RAPIDES

Writ denied.

Hughes, J., would grant the writ.

The lower courts have allowed the testimony of a police officer, that he "believed what D.C. said during the forensic interview." This was error and undermines confidence in the verdict.
