The court stated that a hearsay statement that "appears to be the product of consideration and reflection ...cannot qualify as ' '3 part of the res gestae. The case arose from circumstances surrounding the death of Pamela Tanner. Ms. Tanner was assaulted, set on fire in her car, and later died as a result of her injuries. At trial, the state sought to show that appellant's motive in allegedly procuring two men to kill Ms. Tanner was to prevent her from testifying against him on charges of arson, housebreaking and grand larceny.

ARTICLE SEX, THREATS, AND ABSENT VICTIMS: THE LESSONS OF REGINA V. BEDINGFIELD FOR MODERN CONFRONTATION AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASES Aviva Orenstein* In 2004, Crawford v. Washington, authored by Justice Scalia, revolutionized the law of confrontation by requiring that, aside from two discrete exceptions, all testimonial statements (those made with the expectation that they will serve to prosecute the accused) be subject to cross-examination. This new interpretation of the Sixth Amendment’s Confrontation Clause has profoundly affected domestic violence cases, making it much harder to prosecute them successfully. Although Justice Scalia’s approach to confrontation is new, it is strikingly similar to the analysis in Regina v. Bedingfield, a notorious English murder case, which excluded from the evidence an alleged statement by the murder victim.

I. INTRODUCTION Res gestae is a Latin term that has had many meanings in American courts. Courts have used it when referring to a variety of hearsay exceptions, such as the excited utterance exception, the present sense impression exception, the verbal part of the act doctrine, and statements of mental or physical condition.2 In Bynote v. National Super Markets, Inc., the Missouri Supreme Court determined that the use of the term res gestae should be abandoned in favor of the specific hearsay exceptions it has covered.' The court also held that any requirement of executive capacity to meet the vicarious admission of a party-opponent hearsay exception should be abandoned.4 In addition, the court reviewed Missouri law pertaining to the state of mind and excited utterance hearsay exceptions.'

The town of Carlisle was the county seat from 1816-1819. A log building in the town of Merom served as the courthouse from 1819 to 1842. The City of Sullivan became the county seat in 1843. The Sullivan County courthouse has been located in the center of the downtown city square in Sullivan since 1843. The construction of the current courthouse began in 1926 and was completed in 1928. The courthouse was built in the Beau Arts architectural style by architect John Bayard and builder Walter Heath. John Bayard was also the architect of the Vermillion County Courthouse, and the Sullivan County Courthouse and the Vermillion County Courthouse are nearly identical in style. It was the conscious choice of the Sullivan County Commissioners to construct the courthouse in Sullivan based on the design of the Vermillion County Courthouse, which had been completed in 1924. The Sullivan County Courthouse is nearly square, constructed with a steel frame and concrete.
