Yes it is burdensome for the government to have to follow the Constitution.
The State needs to prosecute wisely.
Either follow the rules or dismiss the case.
I have been on both sides of this as an attorney.
The right to confront and cross examine is absolutely critical to getting a fair trial.
Scalia and Thomas got it right.
I'm concerned about Alito and Roberts on criminal procedure issues.

I am an attorney as well. The older I get, the more liberal I get on crim law matters. I know some freepers will not agree, but the govt needs to be checked.
