The author criticizes an extended thesis on the right of confrontation, according to which the lack of an opportunity to cross-examine a prosecution witness unavailable for trial would preclude the admission of the prior statement. Epistemic arguments are analyzed in the first place, but the paper´s central contribution deals with non-epistemic reasons underlying confrontation right. In this context, the paper advances reasons for being skeptical about free-standing evidencial rights.

The author concludes that these theoretical proposals are not sufficiently compelling to support a strong confrontation right ​
