Heading: Johnson's Contentions

Text: On appeal, Johnson claims that the State intentionally asked certain questions of Adam in order to be able to admit the video into evidence for impeachment purposes. Johnson contends that the trial court was in error by: (1) erroneously assuming that the testimony of Adam Johnson was a denial that the Defendant was acting wildly and cussing while being booked; (2) erroneously finding that this testimony was not the truth and needed to be impeached of rebutted by the videotape; (3) erroneously finding that the video tape was necessary to rebut and impeach this testimony; and (4) erroneously finding that the probative value of this video tape, for the purpose of impeaching and rebuttal, would outweigh the prejudice and harm to the Defendant.
