State of Iowa v. Nelson Carlos Flores

Summary

The Iowa Supreme Court reviewed whether a forensic‑interview video of a child victim could be admitted under Iowa Rule of Evidence 5.106 (the rule of completeness). The Court held the district court did not abuse its discretion in admitting the entire video for the limited purpose of assessing the child’s credibility, affirming the convictions. The decision also vacated the Court of Appeals’ ruling on that evidentiary issue.
