    Next, we turn to the defendant's claim that the court improperly admitted the victim's July 21, 1999 written statement to the police. Specifically, the defendant argues that the court could not properly admit the statement under any of the state's three asserted theories, which included (1) a prior inconsistent statement pursuant to State v. Whelan, 200 Conn. 743, 513 A.2d 86, cert. denied, 479 U.S. 994, 107 S.Ct. 597, 93 L.Ed.2d 598 (1986), and State v. Wearing, 46 Conn. App. 741, 701 A.2d 41, cert. denied, 243 Conn. 937, 702 A.2d 645 (1997), (2) past recollection recorded or (3) pursuant to footnote 19 of Troupe. Consequently, the defendant argues that the admission of the statement violated his right to confrontation under the sixth amendment to the federal constitution.
