dissenting: I respectfully dissent for the reasons set forth in my dissent in State v. Wayne Kelley, 120 N.H. 14, 413 A.2d 300 (1980). I continue to believe that prior convictions should be admissible for impeachment only if they are probative of the witness’ veracity and are not so remote in time that their prejudicial effect outweighs their probative value as to truth-telling ability.
