It's really just a game to try to discredit the witness so their team can win. Bullying and fear, it's just like being out on the playground back in grade school.

I was a witness for the victim. The defendant bullied everybody not to testify but me. My testimony of the fight was less than two minutes. The cross examination took 2 hours. It was mostly about the fact that I walked to the dance and trying to link my CP to some kind of mental incompetence. The whole time the bully and friends were trying level best to scare me. The whole thing turned out to be a hoot. I was glad the prosecutor prepped me. I was able t keep my cool through the rather rude grilling. It times as I recalled I laughed at how ridiculous the attorney was.Rev.

The courts are a very bizarre place to be. I hope I never have to go again. I was on the stand once in my grandsons guardianship case. The lawyer for my daughter was so horrible towards me (even though I was doing a good thing for my grandson). I got a pain in my head that was so bad I couldn't hear what he was asking me. It really strips you naked up there doesn't it. They twist and turn everything you say.Roberta Warshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09869094383053871169noreply@blogger.com
