States v. Ellerbrock, Crim. App. No. 200070925, --- M.J.

<P style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">Defendant
was found guilty of rape and sodomy by force in a
military tribunal. He appealed, arguing that the
military judge erred in applying Military Rule of
Evidence 412, the military's Rape Shield Law, to exclude
evidence of the victim's prior extra-marital affair. He
argued that this evidence was necessary because it
showed a motive to fabricate the allegations against
defendant. The military judge found the evidence to be
inadmissible under 412 as well as only marginally
relevant to show motive to lie, and the probative nature
of the evidence did not outweigh the dangers to the
victim's privacy interests. On appeal, the appellate
court found that any error was harmless, because defense
argued that the victim had a motive to fabricate about
the consensual nature of the sex even without evidence
of the prior affair. The court reversed, finding that
the evidence should have been admitted under an
exception to the rape shield law that allows for the
admission of evidence if its exclusion would violate the
constitutional rights of the accused, including
defendant's Sixth Amendment confrontation rights and the
right to impeach witnesses. It interpreted this
exception as requiring that evidence be admitted when
the evidence is relevant, material, and the probative
value outweighs the dangers of unfair prejudice. Here,
the court found the evidence to be relevant and material
because the victim did not want her marriage to end,
which tends to show that she had a motive to fabricate
about whether the sexual intercourse was
consensual. It found the evidence to be
probative because the witnesses's testimony was
conflicting, thus placing greater weight on the victim's
testimony. Finally, the court found that the
probative nature outweighed the prejudicial nature of
the evidence, because "with proper instructions from the
military judge on how the members could use this
evidence, there is little concern that the members would
have been misled." The court then found that
exclusion of the evidence was not harmless error based
on the importance of the victim's testimony, the
presence of contradicting testimony, and the extent of
cross-examination allowed, among other
factors. Two judges wrote separately in
dissent, both focusing on the low probative value of the
evidence.</SPAN></P>
