State of Connecticut v. J’veil Outing — Norcott, J., concurring

Summary

Justice Norcott concurs in affirming the defendant's murder conviction and agrees that the trial court improperly excluded portions of expert testimony concerning eyewitness-identification reliability. He nevertheless recognizes prudential and preservation concerns about overruling prior precedent in this case and disagrees with treating the exclusion as harmless error. Justice Palmer, joined by Justices Norcott and Vertefeuille, would have overruled the prior precedent but concurred in the result because the evidentiary error was harmless.
