Reply #95: Quality of witness [View All]

[Kevin Fenton]

LG is your "star witness" upon whom this part of your case is based. In your previous post you said that "her memory mixes up the moment." Do I really need to continue? Given that we've established that her account is not consistent with the facts, should we regard it as 100% reliable? No, we should not.

You say that Longman's account is "very accurate". How do you know? Have you listened to the tape? I think that Longman's account (note: I haven't read the book yet, so this is only an initial impression) is a second-hand one based on testimony of an emotionally-disturbed witness, who, as you have admitted, didn't always remember the details right. Further, I suspect that he was embellishing it to make it more dramatic.
