View this case - free  

Overview: State failed to prove that defendant juvenile's father's statement qualified as an excited utterance under Fla. Stat. § 90.803(2), and thus the statement was inadmissible hearsay and not competent to prove the crime's elements; because the State failed to prove the corpus delicti, defendant's statements also could not be used to prove the crime.
