During a trial for embezzlement, the defense attorney wants to introduce evidence that the defendant was previously charged with fraud five years ago. Under the rules of evidence, what category does this prior charge fall under?
The prior charge of fraud is classified as 'Other crimes, acts, transactions, and events.' This category allows the introduction of similar past misconduct to show a pattern or motive relevant to the current embezzlement case.
