The court resolved and deferred evidentiary issues involving a photograph, text-message completeness, an employee statement, and proposed cross-examination of victim 1.
Full day summary
Before the jury entered, the court resolved and deferred several evidentiary issues. It denied victim 5's request to use a pseudonym, excluded Exhibit 3Q-105 under Rule 403, and allowed B-105 after the government said it would clarify the photograph's timing. The court declined to rule in advance on proposed prior consistent statements, directing the government to provide further authority and leaving the issue for trial context. It said Rule 106 completeness disputes over text messages would be addressed as messages were introduced and would not automatically admit entire message threads. The court also overruled an objection to a proposed employee statement, deferred a ruling on proposed cross-examination of victim 1 about prior incidents pending further submissions, and accepted the parties' agreement concerning specified InterContinental Hotel videos.
