We now turn to the question whether the errors were harmless. To conclude that a non-constitutional error is harmless, we must find it “highly probable that that error did not contribute to the verdict,” and must have a “fair assurance that the judgment was not substantially swayed by [the error].” In re Ty.B., 878 A.2d 1255, 1267 (D.C.2005) (emphasis and internal quotation marks omitted). We cannot find such assurance in this case.
