 96-2110 -- U.S. v. Cass -- 10/15/1997
Andrews said that Kevin identified Sonya as the woman in the photos, and said that she was not wearing the clothing she had been wearing when she left the house.
Andrews testified that in his opinion Cass' version of her abduction was "highly unusual." He said it was unusual for an abductor to take someone to shop for clothes, or to allow a victim access to a weapon such as hot grease.
For example, the government asserts that Kevin Cass' statement to Andrews that his wife called from somewhere in Texas to say that she had been kidnapped was not introduced to show that Sonya Cass actually called or that she was actually kidnapped, but rather to explain why the FBI began a kidnapping investigation.
