Good of you to call this out - we seem to have a lot of posters for whom English is a second language.

Hearsay is something I see a lot of on this board. Especially from Righty.

In this case, this allegation is a direct testimonial, straight from the mouth of the female. It may or may not be true, but it is not hearsay.

Dear willful moron; her statement is unverified, unsubstantiated and unofficial. Therefore it is most definitely hearsay. But alas, you are a low IQ pompous arrogant hyper partisan dumbass who has a propensity for making moronic statements and removing any doubt you lack a brain.

It is you without a clue here, councilor.

Hearsay

A statement made out of court that is offered in court as evidence to prove the truth of the matter asserted.

It is the job of the judge or jury in a court proceeding to determine whether evidence offered as proof is credible. Three evidentiary rules help the judge or jury make this determination: (1) Before being allowed to testify, a witness generally must swear or affirm that his or her testimony will be truthful. (2) The witness must be personally present at the trial or proceeding in order to allow the judge or jury to observe the testimony firsthand. (3) The witness is subject to cross-examination at the option of any party who did not call the witness to testify.

In keeping with the three evidentiary requirements, the Hearsay Rule, as outlined in the Federal Rules of Evidence, prohibits most statements made outside a courtroom from being used as evidence in court. This is because statements made out of court normally are not made under oath, a judge or jury cannot personally observe the demeanor of someone who makes a statement outside the courtroom, and an opposing party cannot cross-examine such a declarant (the person making the statement). Out-of-court statements hinder the ability of the judge or jury to probe testimony for inaccuracies caused by Ambiguity, insincerity, faulty perception, or erroneous memory. Thus, statements made out of court are perceived as untrustworthy.

That isn't gossip either. It's her direct account.

Wow, is all I can say. I'm sure you won't admit the error, though. No biggie.

If it is not supported with anything other than her claim, which the only other person named in the account also clearly states it is fabricated along with the accused.

It is nothing more than gossip. Nothing was handed over to the authorities when these presumed acts occurred, no one brought this forward for forty years. For idiots like you to pretend you know what you are emoting about and trying to claim this unsubstantiated account is anything but gossip and hearsay is laughable stupid.

Wow, is all I can say. I'm sure you won't admit the error, though. No biggie.
