The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has ruled that a young girl’s videotaped statement that her father sexually abused her is admissible.

A unanimous six-justice court reversed a Commonwealth Court panel’s ruling in R.A. v. Department of Public Welfare,which held that a 4-year-old’s testimony alleging that her father performed numerous sexual acts on her—captured as a DVD interview with a New York State Police officer—was inadmissible hearsay.
