Restricting the Pro Se Defendant’s Ability to Personally Question Child Abuse Victims

Defendents have a constitutional right to confront their accusors, something usually done by their attorney when they question a witness  in court. What if the defendant is representing themselves in court (pro se) and the witness is the alledged victim of child abuse?  NDAA has issued a paper examining this issue.  You can read it at: http://www.ndaa.org/pdf/UpdateV23N3.pdf
