PEOPLE v. CHANEY
Court did not violate alleged kidnapper's Sixth Amendment right to confront and cross examine witnesses in admitting statements that a nontestifying witness/victim made to police officers when they arrived to execute a search warrant at the kidnapping site where the officers, meeting with a group of victims who were screaming and hysterical after the kidnapper had fled, directed their inquiry not to serving the warrant but at determining what had happened, what might happen in the next few minutes, and the nature of the emergency involved.
