Heading: The prosecution disclosed the Rogoway-White

Text: relationship As a preliminary matter, defense counsel was aware of the relationship between Rogoway and White because Deputy District Attorney Giss testified to its existence at the pretrial discovery hearing held on February 24, 1982. At the evidentiary hearing about the loss of Rogoway’s lineup card, Abramson informed the court that she intended to crossexamine Rogoway about whether she knew Quine and White, and whether she had discussed her identification of Freeman with them. The court expressed concern about suggesting to the jury that Rogoway had attempted to procure perjured testimony against Freeman without any concrete proof, but expressed its willingness to convene a hearing outside the presence of the jury in which Quine and White could be questioned. Abramson indicated that she intended to call Quine as a witness during the defense part of the case, but ultimately chose not to call Quine or White.
