BROWN, J.
Emilio Padilla was convicted of sexual contact with a ten year old contrary to sec. 940.225(1) (d), Stats. Hearsay testimony was admitted both at the preliminary examination and at trial regarding the young victim's statements to others about the assault. We hold there was no error in doing so. Also, Padilla wanted to cross-examine the ten year old about a possible previous sexual experience. With limited exceptions, such inquiry is prohibited.
