Well, I'm used to a pirouette. He spun around.
The truth is, you know, having investigated. look anything like an automobile pedestrian accident, do they?
Isn't it true, Trooper Paul, you came to these opinions and conclusions because Trooper Proctor told you to come to these opinions and conclusions in furtherance of his investigation?
That's why you have these opinions and conclusions that just don't make sense, correct?
And you're just trying to flip a square peg into a round hole.
You had testified on direct examination that Karen Reed's phone connected to the Wi-Fi at 1 Meadows Ave at approximately 12.36 in the morning? Yes, sir. So you can testify based on that, that by 1236 in the morning, Karen Reed was not at 34th Fairview, correct?
And that was the first of those voicemails that you testified to, correct? That was the I hate you voicemail?
Okay. And that voicemail and every other voicemail that the jury heard was left after Karen had left 34th Fairview, correct? Correct.
And except for the one after six in the morning, the four minute one, when she went back, we heard that one. But all the other ones were apparently left when she was at one medals, correct?
How much light did your headlights illuminate of the Alberts' front lawn as you were coming down from Chapman Street?
With regard to that area around the flagpole, did you see anything on the lawn?
Did you see a body?
Look the other way. Four words that sum up the Commonwealth's entire case. Four words that sum up the hopes of those who have tried to deceive you. Conflicts of interest? Doesn't matter. Just look the other way. Magic hairs? Magic glass? Look the other way. Late night calls and Google searches, falsified affidavits, inverted videos, butt dials galore. Just look the other way.
That's what they want. That's what they're counting on, but the uncontrovertible fact is you have been lied to in this courtroom, and your job is to make sure you don't ever, ever look the other way. Preparing for today, I was reminded of a quote. It's a quote about the truth, and I want to share it with you. It is of great importance to set a resolution never to tell an untruth.
There is no vice so mean, so pitiful, so contemptible. And those who permit themselves to tell a lie once find it much easier to do it a second time and a third. This falsehood of the tongue leads to that of the heart. And in time, it depraves all its good dispositions. What does that mean?
It means that it's been observed that to tell an untruth, to exaggerate, to make a false claim, it's a cancer. One lie begets another, and it's a malignancy that grows over time. And that, folks, is how a cover-up is born. That's how a Massachusetts state trooper says in whispered tones to his friends when he thought no one was looking or listening,
how he would make it cut and dry, no matter the truth, how he would make sure to put, quote, serious charges on the girl. In other words, pin it on the girl. You may ask yourself, how does this happen? How could this happen? It's 2024. Surely people aren't going to come to this courtroom, this hall of justice, and lie to us, just give us false information. They wouldn't do that.
They wouldn't try to cover up the truth. The Alberts, the McCaves, Higgins, Lank, Michael Proctor, Uri Buchanek, Brian Tully, You don't have to wonder if they would lie to support their narrative. You need only wonder how many times they did lie. Over and over and over, they and others were caught deceiving you. Big things, small things, it didn't really matter. They feared nothing.
They'll look you in the eye and deny phone calls. They'll deny secret meetings. They'll claim that calls are butt dials and butt dials are answered. They'll show you a video and tell you left is right and right is left. They'll magically turn three pieces of plastic into five right before your eyes. And even when they're caught with their own lies, they won't blink. They don't sweat.
They'll just look you in the eye and demand, pay no attention. You folks look the other way. Ladies and gentlemen, there was a coverup in this case, plain and simple. You'll surely say to yourself, I don't want to believe it. I don't want to believe that can happen in our community. But sadly, over the past eight weeks, you've seen it right before your eyes. So how does a cover-up happen?
