QUESTION PRESENTED Whether the Fifth and Sixth Amendments prohibit a federal court from denying, under Federal Rule of Evidence 807, the admission of testimony provided by a since deceased witness in another trial that was offered by Petitioner under a theory of third party guilt when the only reason given by the district court is there were many unspecified inconsistencies and the only inconsistency cited by the government is that a single piece of forensic evidence established that the witness’s testimony was unreliable.
