Judge Melville ruled yesterday that the defense will not be allowed to delve into the issue of alleged extramarital affairs by the accuser’s mother.

The defense said it wasn’t interested in her sex life but wanted to show that during the time she was allegedly held captive by Jackson she was in contact with a Los Angeles police officer and an Army officer who she eventually married. The defense claims that shows she could have asked for help if she had been a captive.
