In Re Sarah C.
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
1Opinion of the CourtClifford, J.
[¶ 1] The father of Sarah C. appeals from a jeopardy order entered in the District Court (Bangor, Russell, J.), pursuant to 22 M.R.S.A. §§ 4002(6), 4035 (2004). The father contends that the court erred in admitting expert testimony regarding the likelihood that, if he had sexually abused one of his daughter’s friends, he would sexually abuse his own daughter.
