   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-3010
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Bye, Author, with Loken, Chief Judge, and Miller,
   District Judge]
   Prisoner case - habeas. District court did not err in determining that the
   Minnesota Supreme Court had made an unreasonable application of
   Crawford v. Washington, 541 U.S. 36 (2004), when it found admission 
   of statements the victim made to a social worker in the presence of a
   detective did not violate Bobadilla's Sixth Amendment Confrontation
   Clause rights, as the statements were testimonial in nature; while there
   was other evidence of Bobadilla's guilt, admission of the statements was
   not harmless error as the prosecution's case rested heavily on the social
   worker's testimony and her videotape of the interview with the victim.
