Is there insufficient corroboration in a video evidence that corroborates a victim's description of the crime?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Medrano, F075861 (Cal. App. 2019):

People v. Rodriguez (2018) 4 Cal.5th 1123, 1128-1129 (Rodriguez).) In this case, the video is no different than a "victim's description of the crime or physical evidence from the crime scene." It fits precisely into this category of insufficient corroboration.
