Description
We hold in this opinion that the trial court abused its discretion when it denied a motion for mistrial based on the grounds that one of the jurors asked whether the Judge would sentence right away after a verdict, and sent a sympathy note to the victims enclosing a twenty dollar bill, prior to jury deliberations. For retrial, we also conclude that the court properly admitted expert testimony regarding "child sexual abuse accommodation syndrome" and evidence of defendant's prior bad acts.
