65 - US v. Wilson and Witnesses Who Take the Fifth

In this week's episode we discuss United States v. Wilson, where the CAAF reviews the admission of MRE 404(b) evidence for an abuse of discretion.  The opinion provides helpful guidance and helpful language for defenders in defending off the admission of inappropriate propensity evidence.  We also hear from Major Ciara Ryan who discusses immunity and what to do when a witness invokes their rights against self-incrimination while on the stand.
