Ever testified at a trial? I once was looking out my window because there

[applegrove]

was some yelling going on as my neighbour downstairs was about to slice a woman across the face. I went to testify and the victim and her boyfriend (the main witnesses) didn't even show up to testify. They allowed me to give my statement to the defense attorney before the hearing because I lived out of town. Was pretty benign affair. Don't know what the outcome was.

1. My dear applegrove...

I have never testified at a trial...

That sounds pretty gruesome...

Hope the lady got away without being sliced!

2. No she got her faced permanently scarred. I saw her after she was cut

and thought that is strange..that lady has a beard. Of course it was blood. I didn't know until the next day when the police were going over the house that it was an actual stabbing or that the "beard" was blood. I was sure glad to get out of there. I lived in a nice neighbourhood it was just the two houses side by side that were very creepy. I am so relieved to be living where I am right now.

3. Sure - a few times.

I was a designated expert for a particular portion of a state agency that experiences fraud on occasion. Most of our criminal cases were settled out of court, but every now and then someone would go to trial, and I would have to verify the amount of benefits that were paid.
