Learn More About Idaho

Idaho has recently become one of the most rapidly growing states in the nation, and much of this increase in population is due to immigration from outside the U.S. Idaho has acted as a leader in the pro-life movement.  In 2008, Idaho became one of the first states to pass a law imposing criminal penalties and civil liability for “forcing, threatening, or inflicting bodily harm on women to perform unwanted abortions.”  Additionally, under Idaho law, women must give informed consent after hearing information about their fetus’ development, and alternatives to abortion.

In the News: Idaho has also helped define the parameters of the 6th Amendment Confrontation Clause, which grants someone accused of a crime the right to be confronted by opposing witnesses.   In the 1990 case of Idaho v. Wright, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down an Idaho rule of evidence, called a residual hearsay exception.  Specifically, the Court found that a pediatrician’s testimony regarding his interview of two minor patients alleging sexual abuse should not have been admitted to trial because it lacked “particular guarantees of trustworthiness.”  The Court stated that since the physician conducted the interview without procedural safeguards, allowing such testimony would violate the defendant’s Confrontation Clause rights.
