Opinion
October 13, 1992
Appeal from the Family Court, New York County (Sheldon Rand, J.).
The record clearly supports the Family Court's determination that sufficient evidence exists which adequately corroborates the child's out-of-court statements that she was sexually abused by respondent, her father (Family Ct Act § 1046 [a] [vi]). Not only were the child's statements strong and consistent, they were all corroborated by the medical evidence, the doctor's and the social worker's analysis of the incident, and the behavioral patterns of Davina after the traumatic experience (see, e.g., Matter of Nicole V., 71 N.Y.2d 112).
We have considered all the issues raised by respondent and find them to be of no merit.
