The Court admitted the recorded journalist interview and the propensity evidence: the interview was voluntary and not improperly obtained so admissible; the propensity evidence, although years old and occurring in China, involved the same victim and an ongoing, tempestuous relationship making the evidence sufficiently probative on identity and not unfairly prejudicial when properly directed to the jury.
