a gag order,
issued by a Kentucky court.

1:20:05
Jeff Wigand,
Michael Moore.

1:20:07
Good to meet you,
Dr. Wigand.

1:20:09
Mike's our attorney general
down here.

1:20:11
I was just explaining to Jeff
they got a Kentucky court...

1:20:13
to issue a gag order
to stop his deposition today.

1:20:16
- Right.
- Now,

1:20:18
they tried to get
the Mississippi court to honor it,

1:20:21
but the judge threw it out.
1:20:23
However, for you, there is a more
perilous effect of the gag order.

1:20:27
Dr. Wigand, you do understand
what can happen, don't you?

1:20:34
I'm not free to testify...
here.

1:20:38
That's right. If you violate
the Kentucky order,

1:20:41
when you
step foot back in Kentucky...

1:20:43
they can find you in contempt
and they can incarcerate you.

1:20:46
And you ought to know that.
1:20:51
-Jail.
- Possibly, yes.

1:20:53
That is one of the possible consequences
of your testifying here today.

1:20:56
That's right.
1:21:03
How does--
How does one go to jail?

1:21:07
Wh-What does my family do?
1:21:10
Go on welfare?
1:21:12
If my wife has to work,
who's gonna look after the kids?

1:21:16
Put food on the table?
I mean, my children need me.

1:21:18
If l'm not teaching,
there's no medical.

1:21:20
No medical, even on co-pay,
that's like-- Tuition--

1:21:24
Dr. Wigand, listen.
1:21:27
You may not be able
to do this thing.

1:21:29
As I understand from Dick,
you're our key witness,

1:21:32
and I hope
you don't withdraw.

1:21:35
Um, I guess we'd all
understand if you did.

1:21:39
Guys, I gotta go.
I'm gonna be late for court.

1:21:41
I'll see y'all later.
Dr. Wigand, good luck.

1:21:49
[Door Slides Open,

1:21:54
I know what you're facing,
Jeff.

1:21:56
And I think I know
how you're feeling.
