A defendant is charged with pick pocketing. The victim testifies that the defendant approached him on the street and said that his wife had just given birth. The defendant then put his arm around the victim and offered him a cigar. After the defendant walked away, the victim noticed that his wallet and phone were missing from his back pocket. The prosecutor wants to call several other witnesses to testify that the defendant had approached them also with the same story and that their possessions were taken as well. Should the Judge allow the prosecution to call the other witnesses. Explain in a short paragraph your reasoning as to why or why not.
