1. “In Chambers v. Mississippi (1973), 410 U.S. 284 , 93 S.Ct. 1038 , 35 L.Ed.2d 297 , the United States Supreme Court listed four factors which indicate that statements against the penal interest of the declarant are sufficiently trustworthy to be admitted into evidence. Those factors are (1) the spontaneity of the statements, (2) whether the statements are corroborated by other evidence, (3) whether the statements are self-incriminating and against penal interest, and (4) whether the declarant was available for cross-examination by the opposing party. Id. at 300-301 , 93 S.Ct. at 1048 -1049 , 35 L.Ed.2d at 311 -312 . The Ohio Supreme Court has adopted these factors for determining admissibility pursuant to Evid.R. 804. State v. Sumlin (1994), 69 Ohio St.3d 105 , 110 , 630 N.E.2d 681 , 685.”
