Heading: Prosecutorial misconduct by admitting inadmissible evidence.

Text: The defendant argues in his pro se brief that the prosecutor engaged in prosecutorial misconduct by admitting inadmissible evidence. The defendant argues the State violated a motion in limine in addition to the rules of evidence when Detective Zeigler testified that Betts lied. Initially, the defendant is mistaken as to the order of the witnesses in the State's case in chief. Betts testified before Detective Zeigler, not after. Betts also testified after Detective Zeigler in the defendant's case in chief. Regardless, the defendant fails to offer any authority for his argument that Detective Zeigler said, she lied, when referring to Bett. Thus, the record does not support his claim of error and his claim is without merit.
