:52:02
Your Honor, I object
to this line of questioning.
:52:05
It's immaterial what Mrs. Manion
does all the time.
:52:07
On the night she was attacked,
she was wearing panties...
:52:10
and that's all we're concerned with.
:52:12
Mrs. Manion seems a little bit uncertain
about the kind of panties she wore.
:52:16
And since these panties have not been
found, I submit that it's possible...
:52:19
she wasn't wearing any
and has forgotten.
:52:21
- That's all I'm trying to get at.
- You may answer, Mrs. Manion.
:52:26
You always wear panties?
:52:29
No.
:52:31
On what occasions don't you wear them?
When you go out alone at night?
:52:34
No, no. Objection. He says he's going
after one thing and goes after another.
:52:37
I'll sustain the objection.
:52:39
Strike out the last two questions
in Mrs. Manion's answer.
:52:43
Now, Mr. Dancer, get off the panties.
You've done enough damage.
:52:47
Yes, Your Honor.
:52:49
Mrs. Manion,
is your husband a jealous man?
:52:53
- He loves me.
- I'm sure, but is he overly jealous?
:52:57
Your Honor, how can the witness
answer that question?
:52:59
What's the norm of jealousy?
:53:01
Can you put your question
a little differently, Mr. Dancer?
:53:04
- Has your husband struck you in a rage?
- No, Your Honor.
:53:07
I think Mr. Dancer's fishing now.
What's the relevance of this question?
:53:10
Your Honor, the shoe is squeezing
Mr. Biegler's foot.
:53:12
In his own words,
this is not a high school debate.
:53:14
This is a cross-examination
in a murder trial.
:53:17
Proceed, Mr. Dancer.
:53:23
Did you ever go out socially
in Thunder Bay?
:53:26
Yes, a few times.
:53:28
When your husband's outfit moved
to Thunder Bay, didn't Barney Quill...
:53:31
throw a cocktail party
for the officers and their wives?
:53:34
Didn't your husband strike a young
second lieutenant at this party?
:53:38
There was a little scuffle.
It wasn't much.
:53:41
- What was it about?
- I'm not sure I remember.
:53:44
- Were you too drunk to remember?
- No, I was not.
:53:49
I think it was because...
:53:51
the lieutenant was cutting in too much
when I was dancing with my husband.
:53:55
Shortly after on the verandah, didn't
your husband slap you hard enough...
:53:58
so that you fell against the wall?
