Supreme Court of Pennsylvania

Commonwealth v. Walters, P., Aplt.

September 23, 2024

Summary

Justice Dougherty concurs with the majority that Dr. Ross’s expert testimony on the victim’s cause of death lacked objective medical foundations and was therefore inadmissible, but dissents from the majority’s grant of a new trial, arguing that the appellant’s bolstering claim was waived because it was not preserved in the pre‑trial motion or at trial.
