I'd be interested for some lawyers on this site to comment on whether this can even come in as evidence. I suspect it can't.

Of course it can -- standard impeachment evidence they'll ask the witness first, if she denies it they'll bring in other witnesses to confirm.

Any thoughts with respect to the probable impact of information of this nature in a case like this?

How do they get to ask her about it first. Don't they have to show that it is relevant to her truthfulness with regard to the assault charge before they get to ask her about it?
