Criminal Procedure
Confrontation Clause

Tony Colunga appeals a judgment convicting him of one count of first-degree sexual assault of a child. He argues: (1) that the circuit court violated his constitutional right to confront the witnesses against him when it limited his cross-examination of the victim and a social worker who interviewed the victim about the assault; and (2) that the circuit court erred in providing a limiting instruction to the jury concerning the fact that the State did not introduce into evidence the victim’s videotape interview with the social worker. We reject these arguments. Therefore, we affirm. This opinion will not be published.
