   District of South Dakota   
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with M. Arnold and Riley, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - criminal law. District court did not err in denying motion for new trial based on newly-discovered evidence on the ground the court did not believe that the recantations by the child victims were credible; the record supported the court's findings that the recantations were the product of family pressure on the victims and nothing refuted the powerful medical evidence in the case; Brady claims rejected; claim guardian ad litem's testimony violated the attorney-client privilege rejected; district court did not abuse its discretion in applying Daubert in excluding polygraph results.
