Answer the following questions:

In what way(s) did the screen in the Coy case violate Coy's right to confront? In what way(s) did it not violate his right to confront? Just for fun, do you believe there was enough evidence"beyond a reasonable doubt" to convict Coy for the crimes? What do you think about the way the warrant was obtained to search for evidence at Coy?s residence? The Supreme Court's opinion on this case argues that face-to-face confrontation "between accused and accuser" is "'essential to a fair trial in a criminal prosecution.'" Does this statement support their decision to reverse the lower court's decision in this case? In the later case, Maryland v. Craig, Justice O'Conner says '"The Confrontation Clause reflects a preference for face-to face confrontation at trial . . . .'" Do you agree? Is it only a preference? Or do you agree with Justice Scalia who believes that removing the face-to-face confrontation '"is assuredly not a procedure permitted by the Constitution"'?
