The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Juan Nieves-Andino, Also Known as Juan Andino-Nieves, Appellant

Summary

The Court affirmed the conviction, holding that the victim's statements to Officer Doyle were nontestimonial and therefore admissible under the Confrontation Clause, and that any error in admitting other statements was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. Justice Jones, in a concurring opinion, disagreed that the statements were nontestimonial but concluded the error was harmless.
