2023In suggesting H.D.’s statements during the forensic interview did not sufficiently differentiate the criminal acts occurring in the basement from the those occurring in the bedroom because she later stated she did not remember what happened and did not want to 16 talk about it, the principal opinion fails to apply a bedrock principle of appellate review – that a reviewing court is prohibited from judging the credibility of a witness’s testimony because “the jury has the right to disbelieve all or any part of the evidence, and refuse to draw needed inferences . . . .” State v. Jackson, 433 S.W.

Terrie Fuchs v. Department of Revenuegreen
moctapp · 2014 · cited in 1 Missouri opinions naming this issue, 2023–2023
1 sentence

2023She characterizes as the “core holding” of Fuchs that “objective offense is a question of fact for the jury” and calls it the “reaffirmation of a bedrock principle of Missouri law that has been applied consistently under the MHRA.” Substantially short of the “bedrock principle” Appellant espouses, the Fuchs court allowed that “whether a reasonable person would similarly find the conduct offensive will generally be a question of fact for a jury.” Fuchs, 447 S.W.3d at 734 (emphasis added).
