Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Boone County, Christopher C. Polking, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered by Tabor, P.J., and Schumacher and Chicchelly, JJ.  Opinion by Chicchelly, J. (5 pages)

            Maurice Olanders Loyd appeals his conviction for third-degree sexual abuse.  OPINION HOLDS: The trial court did not err by admitting into evidence a body camera video of the complaining witness’s statements to a deputy sheriff.  The statements fall under the excited utterance exception to the hearsay rule and were merely cumulative to the witness’s trial testimony.
