The Supreme Court's recent clarification of the scope of .the Confrontation Clause also eliminates any need to analyze the admissibility of the tape-recording under the rule established in Bruton v. United States, under which "[a]n accused is deprived of his rights under the Confrontation Clause when the confession of a non-testifying codefendant that implicates the accused is introduced into evidence at their joint trial ... even if the jury is instructed to consider the confession only as evidence against the codefendant." Because it is premised on the Confrontation Clause, the Bruton rule, like the Confrontation Clause itself, does not apply to nontestimonial statements.

Vargas, 570 F.3d 1004, 1009 (8th Cir.2009) (holding that Bruton does not apply to nontestimonial co-defendant statements); United States v. Pike, 292 Fed.Appx. 108, 112 (2d Cir.2008) (“[Bjecause the statement was not testimonial, its admission does not violate either Crawford [] or Bruton [ ].”). The inapplicability of Bruton and the Confrontation Clause to O’Reilly’s statements also forecloses Johnson’s argument that the tape-recording should have been redacted to eliminate the use of Johnson’s name." }

Here, only Pearson's mental state was disputed at trial. The jury had the opportunity to convict Pearson of either aggravated murder, which requires knowing or intentional killing, or simple murder, which in the case of killing a peace officer requires only recklessness. Because the jury chose to convict for aggravated murder, the court's refusal to give an instruction on manslaughter, an offense requiring recklessness, constituted at most harmless error.

The United States Constitution reserves to the federal government and to Congress in particular the power to regulate commerce among the states.

In light of Ambach, we think that, in September of 1986, it did not violate any clearly established federal constitutional right for an education official to terminate a teacher's employment in conformity with a statute barring aliens from holding teaching positions.

Applying Iowa law to the allegations of Count II of the counterclaim, we find that Asay was not entitled to an absolute privilege on the basis of the pleadings. In determining whether an occasion is absolutely privileged, the pivotal factor is frequently to whom the matter is published. Publication to the news media is not ordinarily sufficiently related to a judicial proceeding to constitute a privileged occasion.

For example, if a witness testified in this case that he had seen appellant reach out, grab Autumn's hand, and burn her palm with a lit cigarette two days before the group came to the hospital, this testimony (and any pictures showing Autumn's palm with a cigarette burn) would clearly be relevant as tending to show that it was appellant, not Crystal, who burned Christopher's palm. To prove identity in this context, the two acts must be so distinctively similar as to constitute a "signature" act.
