Doobad was on trial for armed robbery. The defense placed Doobad's friend Wendt on the stand as an alibi witness. Wendt testified that at the time of the armed robbery Doobad was engaged in other activities with Wendt. On cross-examination, the prosecutor asked Wendt, "Isn't it true, Mr. Wendt, that the grand jury has indicted you for the same crime as Mr. Doobad?" Doobad's lawyer knew that Wendt had been indicted for the armed robbery and was to be tried separately in two weeks, but she vigorously objected to the prosecutor's question. Her objection should be:
A. Sustained, because Wendt has been indicted, but not convicted, of the armed robbery.
B. Sustained, because prior bad acts may not be introduced to impeach a witness.
C. Overruled, because Wendt's indictment tends to show his criminal propensities.
D. Overruled, because Wendt's indictment tends to show bias on the part of the witness.
Choose A, B, C or D as your solution.
D
