Be seated, please.
2:10:16
The recess in the trial of
The State v. Selena Cross is over.
2:10:19
Gentlemen, you may proceed.
2:10:22
Prosecution wishes to recall
Joseph Cross to the stand.
2:10:36
- Joey...
- I told you my name was Joseph.
2:10:41
Joseph.
2:10:43
This morning, before recess, we were
talking about lying and telling the truth.
2:10:48
Joseph, have you ever told a lie?
2:10:51
- Yes, sir.
- Big ones, or little ones?
2:10:53
Some little ones,
and some medium ones.
2:10:57
Would you lie to save your sister
from prison?
2:11:00
- Yes, sir.
- A big lie?
2:11:02
The biggest lie you ever heard.
2:11:04
- I object!
- Sustained.
2:11:07
Joseph, we heard your testimony
this morning. Was it true?
2:11:11
It was all true.
2:11:12
Do you claim your sister killed your
stepfather because he grabbed her?
2:11:18
He was a strong man,
and we were both afraid.
2:11:20
If Lucas was as strong as you
and everybody else said...
2:11:23
...how could your sister
possibly overpower him?
2:11:26
She was madder than he was,
and scareder.
2:11:29
Lucas was 195 pounds...
2:11:33
...your sister, 110.
2:11:36
Did she sneak up behind him
and hit him...
2:11:39
...with that firewood
when he wasn't looking?
2:11:41
No, sir.
2:11:43
- Were you watching every second?
- I might've looked away once or twice.
2:11:48
Did you see Selena hit him
the first blow?
2:11:51
- I don't know.
- Is there any doubt...
2:11:53
...as to how that first blow
was struck?
2:11:56
I don't know. It all happened so fast.
