Is that right? 5 A. I said I believed that they have done a lot of research in 6 the field. [ don't think I used the word "credible." 7 Q. OK. It's something, though, that you provided to the 8 government as support for your testimony here today. Is that 9 right? 10 A. It is some information pertaining to my testimony, yes. 11 Q. So let's continue a little bit in terms of what this study 12 involved. First of all, there were a total of 18 people that 13 responded to this survey. Is that right? 14 A. That was the second half, I believe, of the study that 15 you're referring to. This was a two-part study. So my 16 understanding is in the second part, there were 18 individuals 17 who are experts in the field, yes. 18 Q. All right. The pertinent one is the literature review. 19 Right? 20 A. It was done in a structured way, though. It wasn't just a 21 summary of the literature. But, yes. The first part was a 22 culling of scientific literature to identify particular 23 behaviors that have been established in the literature to be 24 associated with the process of various tactics, such as 25 grooming and abuse by offenders.
