Cf. United States v. Schuler, 458 F.3d 1148, 1155 (10th Cir. 2006) (“[A] matter is collateral if it
could not have been introduced in evidence for any purpose other than impeachment.”).
E. The government’s other arguments fail.
The government offers three other arguments. First, the government faults Ms. Maxwell
for not showing Jane pictures of Eva, Michelle, and Kelly. Nothing required Ms. Maxwell to do
that, and the government cites no authority for its argument.
What’s more telling is that the government never showed Jane their photographs. The
government’s deliberate choice to muddy the waters is not Ms. Maxwell’s fault or her problem.
The record shows Eva Dubin, Michelle Healy, and Kelly Bovino are the “Eva,” “Michelle,” and
“Kelly” who Jane testified about. Their testimony is admissible.
Second, it’s irrelevant that Ms. Maxwell did not use last names in her examination of
Jane. For one thing, Jane also did not use last names in her interviews with the FBI. For another
thing, Eva Dubin’s name was already on the record from Mr. Visoski’s testimony, and Jane
admitted knowing Kelly’s last name. Finally, Ms. Maxwell did not use Michelle’s last name in
part because she intended to ask this Court for anonymity. It’s immaterial that this Court
subsequently denied that request.
Finally, the government mistakenly relies on cases purporting to hold that a defendant,
through cross-examination, cannot open the door to proving collateral issues by extrinsic
> The government quite rightly does not make a 403 argument. And its relevance
argument—that the testimony of Eva, Michelle, and Kelly does not contradict Jane’s
testimony—is wrong, as described above.
