Litigator Libations

54 - Victim Status under Article 6b and Impeachment with a Newspaper Article

Darrel-the-DCAP Season 3 Episode 54

In the last episode of 2023, Trevor Ward discusses the state of the law regarding who might qualify for victim status under Article 6b, despite having been a coconspirator in the offense.  We also hear from Allen Abrams, who accepted the challenge to describe how defense counsel might use a newspaper article to impeach a government witness.  He walks us through how we can use the article to prepare for trial as well as specific methods of using the article to impeach the witness on the stand.  Thank you to both Allen and Trevor for wrapping up 2023 with an interesting and helpful pod!
