Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Scott County, John D. Telleen, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Vaitheswaran, P.J., Tabor, J., and Vogel, S.J. Opinion by Vogel, S.J. (4 pages)
Arthur Griffin Jr. appeals from his conviction for domestic abuse assault, third offense, as a habitual offender. He contends that recordings from a 911 call and a police body camera were impermissibly admitted into evidence in violation of his rights under the federal and state confrontation clause. OPINION HOLDS: We reject Griffin’s arguments, finding the evidence nontestimonial, and affirm the district court.
