Well, I guarantee you they didn't know it. And we've interviewed a lot of people get on a stand, you freeze. Like if you remember the witness before her, Mia, I mean, remember they said they met with her 27 times. And they probably met with her 27 times to make sure they knew how she was going to be.

Because you think you can prep a witness for a stand, but until you get on the stand and you're looking at the person, you freeze. It's sort of like an actor getting stage fright. It's the exact same theory. And you never know what someone's going to do until they testify. So that's probably what happened. But I read that the cross-examination went well.

Not even that the cross-examination went so well that the witness did so poorly. And one bad witness, I've told you, can hurt your entire case.

And that's such a big defense. You know how many times I've called it the eight mile defense? Tell everybody the bad stuff about the witness before you let the cross examination happen. You get the bad out. Do you have a criminal record? Have you been in trouble with these things? Tell me, do you do drugs?

You get all that out because it doesn't have the same shock value as it will when the witness is being cross examined. And that's the problem. But my gut reaction is they did not know anything. She was going to either they did not know she was going to do so poorly or they knew she was going to do so poorly.

And it's almost worse if you don't put the witness in because then everyone's like, OK, I wonder why they're not having her testify. Maybe she was lying. So you don't have a choice. You're like, we knew she was going to be bad, but we're putting her on the stand anyway.

Well, after a while, you start realizing and there's a little phrase that prosecutors are using that they'll say the devil doesn't hang out with angels. The devil hangs out with devil, that angel. Like, so in other words, these are bad people. So they're going to hang out with other bad people. The defense's standpoint is going to be you cannot trust anything that these folks are saying.
