To overcome the presumption of inadmissibility, the defendant must prove by clear and convincing evidence that\n(1) the statement is reliable;\n(2) similar evidence is unavailable from any other source; and\n(3) failure to introduce the statement would substantially undermine the reliability of the fact-finding process and result in manifest injustice.","path":["Title 12.
