I thought he was trying his best.
He made a mistake.
I believe it's him that said John O'Keefe had like a really big jacket on and he didn't.
He just had like a short sleeve or a long sleeve thin shirt that you probably wouldn't be wearing out in the snow.
But I don't know.
Boston guys are probably tougher than me in the snow.
But I think that's what the defense was trying to do.
I was in Colorado, almost died from the snow there.
But so, you know, so they were trying to say, you know, you didn't even remember those details.
So, and they were trying to say that that shirt would be more likely something that he had on inside versus outside and they dragged him outside and through it.
So there were all these little details, but I didn't think the first witness was that bad, honestly.
And the way that the prosecution pared down the case from trial one to trial two was amazing.
They got a special prosecutor who's a big criminal defense lawyer there that they brought in specifically just to hire this case.
Nobody from within their office, much better at his presentation.
But I think he missed the boat a lot with the way he presented the case.
And one thing he did was he did not call Proctor, who was who you were referencing before, who was the lead investigator in the case.
They tried to pretend like he didn't exist.
And you can imagine the defense did not like that and they did not let that go quietly.
And they highlighted his name and said his name and besmirched his name as much as they possibly could.
And they didn't call him either.
