Not defending Edwards, but how is this admissible? Given her motive to seek revenge against Edwards, I’d think that a video deposition where the defense does not have the opportunity to cross examine would be thrown out in short order. Depositions of the written and electronic sort are sometimes allowed, but not usually under these circumstances.

It will be objected to on those sorts of grounds: “The prejudicial nature of the evidence outweighs its probative value, blah blah blah...”

Ultimately it will be in the judge’s discretion to allow or exclude. In a normal case it would be excluded more often than not. Hard to say what will happen.
