Tom is on trial for robbery. The prosecution called two witnesses:
· Karen testified that she was on duty as a cashier at a Hamburger Haven, a drive-thru fast food restaurant, when Robbie drove up to her window. She claimed he aimed a large gun in her face and demanded all the money in the cash drawer. Karen testified that she fainted and when she awoke the police told her that someone took all the money.
· Lonnie testified that he was at the grill preparing burgers and fries when he heard a man say something about money and Karen screaming. When he looked up, he saw what he believed was a blue Ford driving away. He said that the car "laid rubber" going around the curve in the exit drive-way. Assume for this question: During cross examination of Karen, the defense established that she was frightened by the gun and did not get a look at the driver's face and that she did not see anyone take money because she had fainted. What can the prosecution use to rehabilitate Karen?
A) Provide documentation that Karen successfully complete a residential drug rehab program.
B) Introduce Lonnie's testimony as corroborative evidence.
C) Use re-direct examination to ask Karen the same questions so the jury will be clear about her testimony.
D) All of these can be done to rehabilitate Karen.
