State v. Webb, 197 N.C. App. 619 (Jun. 16, 2009)
In child sexual abuse case, it was error to allow the state’s expert, a child psychologist, to testify that he believed that the victim had been exposed to sexual abuse. The expert’s statement pertained to the victim’s credibility; it apparently was unsupported by clinical evidence.
