Someone asked the other day about attys allowing people to lie. They walk a fine line of pretending to know nothing other than that people on their side tell them. So you get things like this that would happen with Matt McGee using made-up dates.
Direct:
Travis and I met for water on March 1st, 2008, and he told me he had raped and abused Deanna the night before.
Cross:
These flight and hotel records show that you were in the middle of a vacation in Canada, Travis was in the middle of a vacation to Florida, and Deanna was on a mission in Costa Rica on those days, so you are lying about all this right?
Redirect:
Is it possible that you recall the date incorrectly? Yes.
But you swear under oath that it happened, right? Yes.
KN would later say that he's just going by what people tell him. For all he knows there could be identical twin siblings who were on those trips, so it all could have really happened the way his witness testified. Or maybe the documents were fakes, because after all the prosecution has a history of illegally manipulating evidence.
