The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

1. “The only reasons given for barring the testimony were (1) preserving the secrecy of the observation point for purposes of other investigations, and (2) protecting [Officer] Ratcliff's safety, should he use the same observation point in the future. These reasons are not recognized by any privilege, constitutional right, statute or rule. Accordingly, the evidence was not exempt from disclosure.”

2. “Whether or not A.E. was prejudiced by the appealed rulings cannot be determined from the record before us because the circuit court refused to allow disclosure of the concealed position. Thus, we cannot treat the erroneous rulings as harmless error because the state cannot carry its burden on this issue.”
